At least 41 people were shot, 6 fatally, from Friday to Sunday in yet another bloody Chicago weekend.

A 53-year-old man took a bullet to the head while sitting in his car in broad daylight on Saturday, and was pronounced dead at a local hospital, according to CBS Chicago. Five hours later, an unidentified male was found dead with a gunshot wound in his face in the hallway of an apartment building, the local outlet reported.

A total of four people were killed on Sunday including a 28-year-old man who took a round to the head in an apparent drive-by shooting, according to CBS Chicago. Another man, who was suspected of robbing an individual and shooting him in the leg, was riddled with bullets and found dead by authorities, the local outlet reported.
