CHICAGO ROCKED BY HOLIDAY
At least 54 people were shot, seven fatally, in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, police said.
Most incidents were unrelated, with few arrests made.
Fatalities included two women, three men, and two others not yet identified.
Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order barring Chicago police from cooperating with
federal authorities, rejecting President Trump’s push to send in troops or agents.
Johnson vowed to fight any federal deployment in court, while the
White House accused Democrats of politicizing crime instead of addressing violence.
Chicago has reported 272 homicides so far this year.
