“The offenders in this case are Derren sorrels, a 22 year old male, who’s a documented gang member”, explained Eddie Johnson, Chicago police. “I’m frustrated, you should be frustrated, all Chicagoans should be frustrated”, Johnson said on Sunday.
A police spokesman said that both 26-year-old Darwin Sorrels Jr. and 22-year-old Derren Sorrels were charged overnight.
“The endless gun violence in places like Chicago, Dallas, not to mention Orlando, it has to stop; enough”, Wade said. “She was just another mother who wanted her children to get an education just like any good parent would”.
Dozens of people gathered at a Chicago church Sunday for a prayer service to remember Aldridge. “Just a life that’s gone too soon”, said Diann Aldridge, the victim’s mother.
Wade, a native of Chicago’s south suburbs who signed with the Chicago Bulls in July, bemoaned what’s happening in some neighborhoods, saying “The city of Chicago is hurting”.
As violence in the city reaches historic levels, the police department has been calling on lawmakers in Springfield to crack down on criminals with gun convictions. Not for me and my family but for the future of our world.
He followed that by writing, “These young kids are screaming for help!”
Wade was understandably gutted by the violence that took a family member’s life. His nephew, Darin Johnson, was shot twice in the leg in 2012 but recovered.
IN governor Mike Pence sidestepped questions on Sunday morning on CNN’s State of the Union show about the flow of guns into IL from his state, as the USA presidential campaign delves into the issue of Chicago violence.

This tweet exposes the base nature of the real estate mogul, let’s examine his tweet: It’s no surprise that Trump misspelled Wade’s first name; Trump would be well-advised to cancel his Twitter account, but if he’s determined to remain on the social media site, he should at least hire someone to proofread his Twitter rants. Deputy Chief James Jones said the altercation between the men had nothing to do with her. Aldridge’s child was not injured.
One of the bullets hit Aldridge in the head.
Others point to a loss of trust between police and the community, a long-standing problem that grew worse after Chicago police released a squad-car video in November that showed a white police officer fatally shooting a black teenager 16 times. They targeted him because they could tell he was not from the area, police said.
The Alridge family has set up a trust fund for her four children.
According to the Chicago Tribune, “A total of 67 people were shot over the weekend and 11 of them died”. “The negotiations with the USA have effectively failed because we must not capitulate to the American demands as Europeans”, Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel said in Berlin.
