Key Discussion Points & Notable Segments

Memorial Day Weekend Violence: A Statistical and Personal Look

[04:45 – 06:25]

• Woody acknowledges that while this year’s Memorial Day shooting tally isn’t as high as some years, “it was still bad,” and sets the tone with, “The later it gets in the weekend, the shooter usually shittier it usually gets in. That’s just the way it is, right?”
• He emphasizes that his coverage is ongoing and thanks listeners for their continued involvement in cold case efforts (e.g., “What happened to Madison?” hashtag).

Chicago: A Case Study in Urban Gun Violence

[06:26 – 21:00]

• Reports at least 22 people shot over the weekend, moving chronologically and geographically through cases:

  • 14-year-old boy, two 16-year-old girls, and an 18-year-old shot during a mass shooting in Little Village, [14:21].
  • Numerous other incidents—Woody marvels, “You never knew shy town had so many hospitals.”
• [17:45] Plays a news clip: five police officers injured as a car plows through a crowd during a “teen takeover.”
• “A vehicle is a deadly weapon. Officers are entitled to shoot into that car that was coming at them. But they didn’t. They probably should have.” [19:27]
• Chicago PD’s summer strategy: all officers' days off cancelled, extra patrols, social media monitoring.
• Woody notes, “Last year was their safest and nobody’s dead yet this year. But I’m telling you like eight or nine years ago … 27 people got shot. Just mean crazy.” [25:30]

• Philadelphia: Eight shootings, four dead, 14 injured; highlights a “quintuple” (five-victim) shooting ([32:23–34:00]).

The Grind for Law Enforcement

• Woody underscores the relentless pace: “Can you imagine being a cop? And these calls are coming in one after another. Shots fired, shots fired, shots fired.” [34:00]

• Few cases have suspects in custody; several involve unknown motives.

Recurring Themes: Social Media & Teen Gatherings

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

Peace. Hello, everybody, and welcome to this episode of True Crime. Time for Tuesday, May 26th of 2026. And I'm Woody Overton. Today, as I do every year, the day after Memorial Day, I'll tell you about all the craziness, right? And all the shootings this year may not have been as bad, but it was still bad. And the I don't know, I hope y' all had a wonderful Memorial Day. The My son got engaged here at the house on Sunday, so congratulations to him and Emma and hope you had all the fun and good times you can have. And now we're officially in the beginning of summer. Right. So what happened to Madison? Hashtag what happened Madison. Thank you all for sharing and calling in your tips. Please continue to do so. Very, very important and not going to quit talking about that. But the I'm actually recording this 12 hours before memorial Day ends. So there's probably going to be more shootings and stuff that happen. The later it gets in the weekend the shooter usually shittier it usually gets in. That's just the way it is. Right. The the holiday weekend continues rolling. People continue to drink and stuff just goes sugar turns A for somebody. Let's roll out to what used to be one of my favorite cities and where my grandmother came from and everything else which is Chi town, y'. All. And and I know they're going to have more than this. They've this was 16 hours ago and they already had 22 people shot during the weekend in Chicago. So at least 22 people have been shot in gun violence across Chicago so far this Memorial Day weekend. Now this is this is like back on Sunday. So I don't know what I'm sure more have been shot. Let me tell you about a couple of them. One guy who's a 20 year old man was shot around 10:39pm in the 4500 block of South Racine Avenue on Sunday. And of course Chicago police. The victim was driving a black car when someone in a dark colored SUV approached and started shooting. The victim was shot in the arm and the chest and he was taken to the University of Chicago Hospital and is suspected to be okay but nobody is in custody. Now another man was shot while driving on Chicago's west side on Sunday. This shooting happened about 8pm in the 1700 block of North Laramie Avenue. 33 year old man was driving in a black car when someone in a golden color car start to shoot at him. This victim was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital with a gunshot wound in the left thigh. He's expected to be okay but nobody is in custody. Tell you about another one on the far south side of Chicago. A 23 year old man was shot in Chicago's far South side on Sunday. The shooting happened around 2pm in the 13200 block of South Indiana Avenue. The victim was in a parked car when someone approached and started to shoot. The 23 year old victim was taken to Christ Hospital with a gunshot wound to the right flank. I guess that means in his right ass cheek. He was expected to be okay. But guess what, Nobody is in custody. Rolling along they will go to the another far South Sider a 29 year old woman was shot on Chicago's Far south side on Sunday morning. The shooting happened around 6:44am in the 600 block of East 131st Street. The victim was inside a residence when a man approached and started cheating. She was shot three times in the leg and taken to Advocate Christ Medical center in critical condition. This suspect thankfully was taken into custody, but I don't have any more information. Now this is like this last lady, she was inside her house, right? Well, this one, a 17 year old, was shot while sleeping on the city's north side. The shooting happened around 3:34am in the 1000 block of West Thorndale Avenue in Edgewater. The boy was sleeping when a gun pierced through a window and shot him in the ankle. Figure it out. He was taken to St Francis Hospital and suspected to be okay. And no one is in custody. Well, let's go to University village. And a 19 year old man was shot in University Village on Sunday. The victim was walking through an alley at about 3:50am in the 1100 block of West Roosevelt Road. He was approached by a man with a gun and the shooter struck the victim in the face, then shot him. Victim was shot in the leg, was taken to Stroger Hospital in good condition. You never knew shy town had so many hospitals.

[Podcast Host/Advertiser]

Right,

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

and no one's been arrested for that one either. But continuing on, another woman was shot inside a Lawndale home on Sunday. The shooting happened around 4:41am in the 1400 block of South St. Louis Avenue. A 25 year old woman was inside the residence when she was shot. She was taken to Mount Sinai in serious condition. And the Chicago Police Department says the shooting likely happened outside the house. Well, Mount Sinai is the winner so far. We got at least two there, but bringing you another one. And this while actually bringing you two more. Two men arrived at Mount Sinai Hospital on Sunday morning with gunshot wounds. Chicago PD said a 27 year old and a 29 year old arrived to the hospital with gunshot wounds. The 29 year old had multiple gunshot wounds to the body and was listed in critical condition. I'm pretty sure anytime you, you have multiple gunshot wounds, you're gonna be in critical condition. But the 20, the 27 year old, that's 29 year olds and one of multiple gunshot wounds. The 27 year old was shot in the leg. He's expected to be okay. And nobody's under arrest going back to Lawndale. And a 30 year old man was shot in Lawndale on Sunday. According to Chicago Police, the shooting happened around 3:12am in the 2200 block of South Keeler Avenue, the 30 year old victim arrived at our favorite hospital again, Mount Sinai Hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg. He's expected to be okay and no one's been arrested. Now here's a hospital we hadn't heard of yet. A shooting victim arrived at the Norwegian Hospital on Sunday morning. According to Chicago PD, 21 year old who self transported to the hospital at about 1:30am on the city's Northwest side. They said it was not clear where the shooting happened and he had a gunshot went to the leg but he is expected to be okay and no one's under arrest. Moving on. A 51 year old man was shot while walking outside on the city's northwest side. The shooting happened around 1:30am in the 800 block of North Ridgeway Avenue on Sunday. He was shot in the right arm and he was transported to Stoeger Hospital and is expected to be okay. No arrest been made. Let's go to west town Chicago. A 17 year old was shot in West Town on Sunday morning. According to Chicago PD, the shooting shooting happened in the 2000 block of West Randolph street at about 2:04am the boy was standing outside when he said he heard gunshots and felt pain. Chicago PD said he was shot multiple times to the body. He self transports Stroger Hospital in serious condition but was later stabilized. Amazing thing yet is and I'm sure some died by now but none of them are dead yet. Let's go to Little Village. Four young people were among the victims in the Southwest side shooting on Sunday. According to Chicago PD, the shooting happened around 3:02am in the 2500 block of South Wassenal Avenue. A 14 year old boy's right arm was grazed by a bullet. Two 16 year old girls were shot in the legs. An 18 year old was shot in the right buttocks. All victims were taken to Mount Sinai and are expected to recover. No news of an arrest rolling on. Still in Chi Town y' all let me tell you something and I've said this numerous times. Last time I was there I left on Friday. Memorial Day weekend they killed 27 people. Pretty sure if I lived in Chicago on Memorial Day weekend. I'm getting the out of town. But here's another one. A man was shot on Saturday morning in the Inglewood neighborhood. According to police, the shooting happened around 10:06am in the 7300 block of South Carpenter Street. A 32 year old was outside when two people approached him and started to shoot. The man was taken to St Bernard Hospital with three gunshot wounds to the lower body. No news of an arrest. Moving on. A 38 year old man was shot on Friday night in Lawndale. According to Chicago PD, the shooting happened around 8:40pm in the 4100 block of South Carlov Avenue. CPD said the man was driving when he felt pain. He drove to another location where paramedics with Chicago Fire department treated him. He was taking him outside in our hospital with a gunshot wound to the hand. He's expected to be okay. No one's under arrest. Moving forward. Two women were shot while sitting inside a car on Chicago's west side on Friday night. Police said the shooting happened in the Garfield park neighborhood near West Huron street in North Evers avenue just before 9pm Police said the women, who were 31 and 32 years old, were sitting in the gray vehicle when they heard gunshots and realized they had been hit. Well, there you have it. Both are expected to be okay. Not stopping there. We have a 32 year old man who was shot in the Back of the Yards neighborhood. That's actually the name of the neighborhood, Back of the Yards neighborhood. On Friday, shooting happened around 6:57pm in the 5200 block of South Henry Street. The man was in the backyard when he was shot in the left foot. He was taken to the University of Chicago Hospital and is expected to be okay. And no one is in custody, y'. All. They still got 12 hours left when I'm recording this. And that's crazy, right? I want to play this for you. This is out of Chicago. Chicago summer season is already off to a violent start.

[News Anchor]

Five police officers heard and dozens of

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

people shot and wounded this Memorial Day weekend. Joni Lum is live downtown right now with the very latest. Joanie Dane.

[Reporter Joni Lum]

Those officers were hurt while they were trying to disperse the teen takeover. And at the same time, there was a mass shooting in Little Village and all of the wounded were teenagers. Most of the violence in Chicago took place during the late night hours. Hundreds of people gathered at Loomis and Roosevelt overnight blocking traffic. Chicago police began dispersing the crowd and just before 3am Someone drove into the crowd, striking five police officers before crashing into a squad car, a pole and a fence. Chi Town crime chasers captured video of what appears to be an arrest. Five officers were struck by the car. They all were listed in fair condition at the hospital. Police say the car was driven by an 18 year old who was taken into custody. A weapon was recovered as I understand

[Reporter/Field Correspondent]

that there were individuals that were hanging out after 2 o', clock, 3 o' clock in the morning. We need our parents to know where

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

their children are right?

[Reporter/Field Correspondent]

And as much as we're creating opportunity for individuals, the accountability mechanism cannot just be with teenagers.

[Reporter Joni Lum]

Police gathered to honor fallen officer Enrique Martinez, who was shot during a traffic stop in 2024. The police union president said the administration needs to do more to protect officers. The five officers struck by that car are lucky to be alive.

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

A vehicle is a deadly weapon. Officers are entitled to shoot into that car that was coming at them. But they didn't. They probably should have.

[Reporter Joni Lum]

In Little Village, a mass shooting overnight 14 shot and wounded. Police in the area reported hearing gunfire at 3am in the 2500 block of South Washtenaw. They found three females and a male suffering gunshot wounds. They ranged in age from 14 to 18. It appeared other teens were in the area, but the offender ran away. The four wounded teens were taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, all listed in good condition. Chicago police officers days off were canceled as a part of a summer safety strategy to have more patrols on the street for Memorial Day weekend. Superintendent Larry Snelling predicted it could be rough.

And Chicago police said they were monitoring social media, putting extra patrols at public spaces to keep the youth safe. The mayor and superintendent urged parents to know where their children are. Last summer was Chicago's safest summer in 60 years. Reporting live downtown, I'm Jody Lum Fox Chicago.

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

There you go. And that's all I'm gonna talk about for chi town this week or this year, I guess I should say from Memorial Day. And it is a beautiful city. My God, I love it. I absolutely love Chicago. But I'm not stupid. I'm not going. And last year was their safest and nobody's dead yet this year. But I'm telling you like eight or nine years ago, whenever it was last time I was there, 27 people got shot. Just would just mean crazy. Yeah. The cops being called in every every cop had to work and they still shot 20 some people already. And there's 12 hours left. So there you have it. All right. Let me tell you about a couple more. The ollie give you one here from Baton Rouge. News starts now with breaking news.

[News Anchor Colin Vedros]

And that breaking news, one person is in the hospital after a shooting near Longfellow Park. Good evening and welcome to nine News at ten. I'm Colin Vedros. Emergency officials telling us that victim is in critical condition. We're told the shooting happened around 8:20 near Douglas Avenue and Beach Street. No word yet on what led to the shooting or any possible suspects. You can keep up as we learn more on the nine News app.

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

That end was one of many y' all that's in Baton Rouge. Let's do this one. We're going to Monticello, Arkansas. And the Monticello Police Department is now investigating after an early morning shooting left three people dead on Memorial Day. According to the reports at about 4am on May 25, 2026 officers were called with reports of a domestic disturbance Officers were called with reports of a domestic disturbance happening at a home in Monticello. Once they arrived on the scene, they found three people suffering from gunshot wounds. Paramedics were called to the scene to give aid. But guess what? All three of them were dead, pronounced by the Drew county coroner. And when police said there's no active threat to the public, well, they don't say anything about them having anybody in, in jail. So that would tell me there still is a threat. It's a threat to somebody. All right, let's go out to New

[News Reporter]

York, to Brooklyn communities all across the country pausing to remember the men and women who died in the U. S. Military. But police here in New York are investigating deadly gun violence that erupted or erupted early morning. This is out in Brooklyn. Investigators say one man was killed and another injured in a shooting. We got this citizen app video right here. It's not the best sort of video of, of the scene, but you can see a lot of NYPD units on scene there. The FDNY ambulance sort of off in the background. So here's what we know about the shooting happened just after 8 o' clock this morning. Again, this is Memorial Day, Monday morning on Utica Avenue and Avenue J. I mean, just definitely casting a somber tone over a day already centered on remembrance and reflection. So the shooting happened around 8 o', clock, Utica Avenue, Avenue J, within the confines of I'm not sure what exactly precinct it is, but we do know the NYPD is responding. We got confirmation this morning that a 41 year old man suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the body. We don't know who he is or what his identity at this point is, but we do know that he was transported to Kings County Hospital. He was pronounced dead there. There was another person, a 68 year old man who suffered Gray's wound to his foot. He is expected to survive. Now they don't have the shooter in custody at this point. The NYPD does not have a shooter in custody in this incident. Out in the Brooklyn area again, Utica Avenue and Avenue J. No arrests, no suspect description. The NYPD just putting this information out just, just a few minutes ago. That's why I wanted to bring it to you first here on Newsroom Live. Detectives say there is no known motive, but there are several tributes happening throughout the city today that will go on. And as we track what's the news is here. It looks like somebody was in their car and they were driving past it. They decided to take their camera out

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

and well, that's New York and that's one of many all I'm just scrolling through the headlines and they just don't stop. All right, let's go to the White House. The I mean total should show. I think everybody heard about this. This guy that evidently had some mental issues in he5 owed. What happens if you go to the White House and you pull a gun and you start shooting? Well, it's not going to end well for you.

[White House Correspondent David Spunt]

We have an update on the shooting near the White House. It happened on Saturday. A bystander was actually struck. They are now in serious but stable condition, we're told. Secret Service meantime fatally shooting the suspect after he fired at a security checkpoint. This incident marks the third shooting near President Trump in just the past month. David Spunt has the very latest from the White House for us this morning. Good morning, David.

[Casual Conversationalist 1]

Hi, Julie. Good morning to you. President Trump is at the White House today. He will shortly deliver remarks at Arlington National Cemetery marking Memorial Day. President Trump, I will note, was also here at the White House meeting with advisers when those shots rang out on Saturday evening. Certainly a scary event for those in and around the White House. This happened a little bit after 6:00pm at 17th and Pennsylvania Avenue. You see some photographs of of some of those Secret Service officers. 21 year old from Maryland approached Secret Service. His name Nasir Best. Now there's a checkpoint there. According to the Secret Service, Best took a gun out of his bag, began shooting at officers. They returned fire, shooting him. He was pronounced dead at the hospital. That bystander, as you mentioned, is recovering thankfully. Unclear though whether that bystander was struck by the suspect's gunfire or during the exchange of gunfire with officers. President Trump posting on social media over the weekend. Thank you to our great Secret Service and law enforcement for the swift and professional action taken this evening against a gunman near the White House who had a violent history and possible obsession with our country's most cherished structure. Now, Best was known to law enforcement. Our sources say he was detained twice last year, once in June for making threats to agents and once in July for entering a restricted area. This incident, though on Saturday night, unfortunately not isolated. Today marks a month since a man opened fire at the White House Correspondents Dinner in Washington.

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

Stop it on that, Trump. The first lady, the, I mean come on, man, the known to him and everything else and then had to just had to go find out if they, if their shooting skills are legit. And I can assure you that Secret Services shooting skills are Legit. So going to Philadelphia. And they said a violent holiday weekend in Philadelphia as eight shootings across the city left four people dead and 14 others injured. The first shooting happened at the intersection of Ditman street and Sanger street just after 11pm on Friday. Both a 15 year old boy and a 35 year old man were shot in the leg and taken to the hospital in stable condition. And listen this, you don't get to use this word often. A quintuple shooting. Quintuple shooting unfolded just hours later on the 1000 block of Green Street. At around 1am on Saturday, a 21 year old man was killed and four other victims were treated at a local hospital in stable condition. Two of the victims were 17 and 18 year old girls. But hits keep coming. About an hour later, a deadly triple shooting broke out on the 5100 block of Bible Way. Around 2:20am Three men were rushed to a local hospital and one of them died.

[Podcast Host/Advertiser]

Doesn't stop there.

[Woody Overton - True Crime Time Host]

Later Saturday morning a chase ended with an officer involved shooting near Kensington Avenue in Hart Lane. And police say the officer shot the suspect when he raised a gun during the struggle. But guess what? Can't kill bad grass. The suspect is still in stable condition. Now On Sunday, a 20 year old man was shot in the shoulder on the 2200 block of North 8th Street. Just before 1am About 20 minutes later, a man was fatally shot on the 4300 block of Rising Sun Avenue. And can you imagine being a cop? And these calls are coming in one after another. Shots fired, shots fired, shots fired. Well, later Sunday evening, police say a man was killed during a self defense shooting at rural farms in Frankfurt. A bystander was taken into custody for tampering with evidence. Then four people are recovering after a shooting broke out at a garage party in Olney just after midnight on Monday. One teen suspect is in custody. Said no arrests have been made in several of the shootings and the motives are still unknown. Right. City of Brotherly Love. Just go coast, coast. I mean there's so many stories, it's just stupid. That's why I do this every year. I don't know why it's Memorial Day, but it just is good.
