Thirteen injured in shooting at Chicago memorial party; bail set for man on gun charges
Thirteen people were injured when shots were fired at a house party in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood in the early hours of December 22, 2019, the Seattle Times reported. The gathering was a memorial party held in honor of someone killed in April.
Shots were first fired just after 12:30 a.m., according to the Seattle Times. The outlet reported 13 people injured; police have not released a breakdown beyond that, and officials have not released the identities of those hurt.
The case is developing. Police and the Cook County state's attorney's office are involved, and a suspect is in custody, according to the Seattle Times. On Monday, bail was set at $300,000 for Marciano White, who faces gun charges in connection with the house party shooting, the Seattle Times reported. His public defender, Scott Finger, said: "I haven hat he's the one that did the shooting."
No cause or motive has been established, and police have not said what led to the shooting. Charges are allegations and are not findings of fact.

How we work
This site models an investigative reporter rather than a wire desk. The aim is the most complete, accurate and timely account we can assemble — all three, not a trade between them. Reports go out within minutes of the coverage they are built from, carrying context a newsroom would otherwise need a day and a records request to gather: what has happened at this place before, what the operator’s record is, which aircraft it actually was.
Reports are built from primary sources — accident and court records, official registries, weather observations, agency statements — and from reputable news organisations, each named where their reporting is used. Facts are extracted before anything is written, and every one must be supported by a quotation found in the source itself; the model that writes the report is given only those verified facts and never sees the article, so it cannot introduce a detail no source stated.
Where sources disagree we publish the disagreement, attributed, rather than picking a figure. Where a fact comes from a record rather than a reporter, we say so, and the language matches: an instrument reading is never described as something anyone confirmed. Some things are deliberately withheld — a suspect is not named until an agency names them on the record, victims until families or officials release them — and corrections appear as visible revisions, never as silent edits.
None of that makes a report true. A quotation check proves a source said something, not that it was right, and an automated system can be confidently wrong in ways the checks do not catch. If something here is wrong, the feedback above is how it gets found. The full methodology, including what we refuse to publish.
