Cops revealed 19 people were shot at in what they are probing as a drive-by attack, as per the CBS affiliate WBBM-TV.

The conditions of the injured victims remain unknown.

It’s not known how many people were taken to the hospital.

Police have not revealed any information about the victims who were killed.

A mass shooting is an incident where at least four people have been injured or killed.

The deadliest shooting of the year was in St. Louis, Missouri, when four people were killed.

A murder probe was launched when four people were found dead inside an apartment building.

Three of the victims were named as Ashley Cardwell, 34, Justin Wells, 33, and Wendell Simmons, 67.

Cops also discovered several guns and narcotics inside the property, as reported by the Fox affiliate KTVI-TV.

In the immediate aftermath, cops issued an urgent appeal in a bid for witnesses.
