A 20-year-old Chicago man has been charged in connection with a deadly shooting that occurred over the violent Fourth of July weekend.

Nine people were killed and 40 others were injured in citywide violence over the holiday weekend, making it the least violent Fourth of July weekend in at least six years. The weekend runs from 5 p.m. Thursday to 5 a.m. Monday, meaning late Wednesday’s mass shooting — which left four dead and 14 others injured — was not counted in the total.

With the Fourth of July and the annual NASCAR Chicago Street Race making for a jam-packed few days ahead, Chicagoans can expect a hot — and potentially stormy — holiday weekend.
