Mourners take to the streets for the 5-year-old girl shot dead on Chicago’s West Side

CHICAGO (CBS) – A grieving community pleaded for peace on Chicago’s West Side Friday night.

Residents of the 200th block of South Campbell Avenue, north of Jackson Boulevard, took to the streets to mourn 5 year old Reign Ware – an innocent victim of gun violence.

The rally supported neighbors and families who are fighting against gun violence and called for people to surrender their weapons – either publicly or anonymously.

Last Sunday morning, around 3:30 a.m., a group of people were standing on the same block where the rally was taking place when shots were fired.

According to police, Reign was in a parked car when she was struck by gunfire. She was struck in the upper abdomen and taken to Cook County Stroger Hospital, where she died.

At least 60 evidence markers lined the street where the shooting took place.

A 24-year-old man standing outside was shot twice in the left thigh and taken to Stroger Hospital in good condition.

A citizens’ group said last weekend that it was offering $1,000 for any information leading to an arrest in the case.

Rule was among the nine people killed by gun violence in Chicago last holiday weekendAnother 33 were shot and injured.
