At least 18 people were shot Wednesday night outside a Chicago nightclub. Four people were killed when at least three gunmen opened fire in what police are calling a drive-by shooting. Videos from the horrifying crime scene are posted below.
Chicago police said around 11 p.m., a dark SUV drove past the nightclub in the 300 block of West Chicago Avenue, where three people from inside fired shots into a crowd of people standing outside.
The crowd was said to be leaving the nightclub following an album release party for rapper Mello Buckzz.
Police also confirmed that four people died, including two men, 24 and 25, and two women. Their ages have not yet been released.

The victims injured in the shooting range in age from 21 to 32 years old. At least four people were listed in critical to serious condition at local hospitals.
Rapper Mello Buckzz released a statement on social media, saying in part, “Prayers up for all my sisters god please wrap yo arms around every last one of them.” She then went on to say, “Feel like everything just weighing down on me…all I can do is talk to god and pray.”
Pastor Donovan Price said the city spoke to CBS News Chicago after arriving on the chaotic scene.
“The worst, the worst I’ve seen. People wanting to find their other people, find who was alive, finding who was you know where their phones were because they dropped them in the chaos, so they couldn’t even call, or couldn’t even find their car keys. It’s, it’s something that you wouldn’t expect to find in the city, we have a lot of shootings, but nothing, nothing like this.”
No arrests have been made as of Thursday. Investigation into the shooting remains ongoing as police continue to search for the three shooters.
