Well Thank Goodness!

We were worried that downtown was turning into a $hithole, but it's all good now:

• A 19-year-old woman who was shot outside the Loop Macy’s Saturday night may not have been the intended target, according to police reports obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times.

  Just before the shooter opened fire in her direction, an altercation between two groups of male teens had occurred, according to a report.

  Investigators learned the victim was “not likely the intended target,” the report said.

  The assailant, only described as a male teen wearing a gray hoodie, shot her in her leg left, pelvis and right hand just before 9 p.m., when the woman was in a crosswalk outside the Macy’s at 111 N. State St.

Don't worry tourists - if you catch a stray round, it probably wasn't meant for you. Don't let this effect your decision to return to our fair city and spend money.
