As juvenile senior citizens in Chicago, we remember this parade as kids as being end of summer as school was starting in mere weeks. But we NEVER remembered this type of violence associated with it…

The Bud Billiken Parade was not a success by any measure, Mr. Mayor, unless you consider a photo-op a triumph.

A massive brawl broke out involving a swarm of teens.

A person was shot in the head.

Another person was stabbed. https://t.co/ai9mfCltEW
