After shots were fired from a black vehicle toward a group of people leaving a service at Rhodes Funeral Services at 6:30 p.m., the attendees exchanged gunfire with the people in the car, Chicago Police Department spokesman Tom Ahern told The Washington Post. The car crashed and three or four occupants fled in separate directions, authorities said. Ahern said 60 shell casings were found at the scene.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
