And while Gambis Williams was killed on Saturday, the weekend city shootings continued on Sunday night.

ACP Chester Williams - OC, Eastern Division South
"The two young men that were shot were socializing in the yard and an unknown gun man came and fired several shots in their direction and both persons were shot in their feet. They were taken to the hospital and they were admitted in a stable condition."
Reporter
"In relation to Shane, Orlando and Anthony, are they known to police?"
ACP Chester Williams - OC, Eastern Division South
"I will say the same thing. When a person is a victim I do not believe into venturing down into their character. They are the victim of a crime and what we need to do is to investigate the crime and try to see who have violated them. So that's what we are doing."
Again South Side Commander ACP Chester Williams would not get into the gang profiles involved in this case.
