CHICAGO (WLS) -- Six people were k**led in shootings across Chicago over the weekend, police said.
Since 5 p.m. Friday, a total of 59 people were shot, leaving six k**led and 53 wounded.
In the latest incident, two teenagers who had been reported missing were found shot to death in a field on the Far South Side.
The two teenagers, just 16 and 17 year old, were found dead at about 11:57 p.m. in a field on East 131st Street between Eberhart and Rhodes avenues after being reported missing days ago.
The family of 16-year-old Raysuan Turner said he has been missing since Friday. He was found dead in the field along with 17-year-old Darnelle Flowers, who had also been missing since Friday.
Also Sunday night, five people were shot after a softball game in the Grand Crossing neighborhood.
The shooting occurred just before 11 p.m. in the 7400-block of South Dante Avenue.
The victims were gathered after their weekly game, when investigators said a black van pulled up, and someone started shooting. One of the victims is in serious condition.
Chicago police held a Monday morning news conference discussing another violent weekend and the need for more community involvement.
"These individuals that keep pulling these triggers just feel like they can continue to do it because they are getting away with it," said Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson.
The first fatal shooting occurred Saturday night in the Englewood neighborhood.
A 26-year-old man was shot in the back in the 2300-block of West 72nd Street at about 8 p.m., police said. A witness told police they saw the victim on the sidewalk and heard gun shots.
The victim was t***sported to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where he later died. He was identified to the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office as Matthew Hudson.
No one is in custody. Area Central detectives are investigating.
