At least 13 people have been shot, five of them fatally, in Chicago since Friday, police said.
The weekend violence came just one day after 13 people were injured in a Chicago park.
The victims included 10 males and three females, including 3-year-old Deonta Howard -- known as "Tay-man" -- who was shot in the jaw and listed in critical condition.
Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy said an assault style rifle with a high capacity magazine was used in the park shooting.
McCarthy added that based on witness interviews, the attack appears to be gang-related, as several of the victims are gang members. It is still unclear whether more than one person opened fire, he said.
No one was in custody for the shooting as of Saturday morning.
The weekend's most recent shooting took place just after 5 p.m. Saturday when two people were shot in the Englewood neighborhood.
Police said the shooting took place near 69th Street and South Racine Avenue, where a 19-year-old man and a 22-year-old man were shot.
Chicago Police News Affairs said their conditions were not known and no further details were available on the shooting.
Around 5:35 a.m. Saturday in the 11800 block of South Lowe Avenue a 51-year-old man was shot in the stomach.
The man claimed he heard gunshots and felt pain, according to Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Jose Estrada.
He was transported in serious condition to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, according to authorities.
Around 4 a.m. Saturday, a man was shot over a parking spot in Chicago's Gold Coast neighborhood.
The shooting occurred in the 0-100 block of East Chestnut Street when a 41-year-old man was shot in the abdomen, police said.
The shooter fled in a white car and the man was taken in serious condition to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, according to Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Michael Sullivan.
An hour earlier, two men were shot in the 1200 block of West Washburn Avenue, police said.
A 22-year-old man was standing on the sidewalk when he heard shots and felt pain, Sullivan said. The man was transported to John H. Stroger Hospital in critical condition where he was later pronounced dead. A second victim, a 23-year-old man, transported himself to the hospital with a wound to the leg.
Around 1:20 a.m., police said a 30-year-old man was exiting the driver’s side of a vehicle when another car drove by and fired several shots.
The man was transported to Mount Sinai Hospital in serious condition.
On Friday, a 37-year-old man was walking in an alley around 11:10 p.m. in the 6000 block of South Halsted Street when an offender fired shots from behind, police said.

Earlier Friday, a 21-year-old man was fatally shot in the head in the 6600 block of South Honore Street.

The man was pronounced dead at Stroger Hospital.
Fifteen minutes earlier, an 18-year-old man was shot in the 2200 block of East 71st Street.

Around 5:30 p.m., a man was shot during a police-involved shooting on the city’s Northwest Side.
Police said an officer observed a car matching the description of a vehicle wanted in connection with burglary in the 6100 block of West Belmont Avenue.
The officer pursued the vehicle and another responding sergeant attempted to curb it in the 5600 block of West Roscoe Street.
The sergeant then exited his vehicle and the offender reversed and intentionally rammed the squad car. The sergeant approached the vehicle, but the offender accelerated forward toward the officer and the officer fired, according to a statement from Chicago Police.
The man was taken into custody and transported to an area hospital for his injuries.
Angel Torres, 44, was charged with felony burglary, aggravated assault and armed violence, police said Saturday.
