More than 30 people lost their lives from gun violence around the country over a blood-spattered Memorial Day weekend — just days after the tragic school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.
Dozens of victims — including 13 in Philadelphia alone — lost their lives with violence spiraling across the nation.
The City of Brotherly Love was anything but over the holiday weekend, with the staggering body count including a father and his 9-year-old son, according to local reports.
Gerald Parks, 38, and his boy, Jamel, were sprayed with bullets and killed
in their car after going to a cookout, CBS 3 reported.
In another incident early Monday, two women were killed and a 14-year-old child injured in a shooting at an outdoor hookah smoking party.
At least a dozen other Philadelphians were also wounded by gunfire, cops said.
Chicago saw at least six people killed over the weekend and another 34 injured.
In one incident, a 69-year-old man was killed by a suspect who later barricaded himself in an abandoned building during a 90-minute standoff
with a Chicago SWAT team.
Maryland suffered at least four shooting deaths, including a 17-year-old
boy and two men involved in a separate triple shooting in Baltimore.
The weekend mayhem was marked by several shootings that injured multiple people.
A gunman opened fire at a festival in Oklahoma on Saturday night, killing
one and injuring seven others. The suspect, Skyler Buckner, 26, later
turned himself in.
In New York, two people were fatally shot in separate Brooklyn incidents
over the weekend, according to cops.
There were also gunshot fatalities in cities including Tampa, Memphis,
Fresno and Atlanta.
The violent weekend came after gunman Salvador Ramos, 18, opened fire at a Texas school, killing 21 students and teachers last Tuesday.
