As of Sunday evening, 52 people have been shot this weekend. Four of those victims were minors, police said.
On Sunday, some business owners united to help catch those responsible.
The 1-year-old boy shot and killed while riding home from the laundromat with his mother has been identified as Sincere Gaston.
The shooting happened in the Englewood neighborhood Saturday afternoon.
"This is our community, and we refused to let crime take over the narrative of our community. I often say this: I am proud to be the daughter of Englewood because good is in Englewood and we are changing the narrative," said Alderman Stephanie Coleman, 16th Ward.
There is a growing reward for the arrest and conviction of the boy's killer. The newly formed reward group "I'm Telling, Don't Shoot" is putting up $25,000.
Among the victims was a 20-month-old baby, a 10-year-old girl, and a 17-year-old boy, who were fatally shot in separate instances in weekend violence.
"This is a group of business owners that are pretty much fed up as it relates to the gun violence in our communities," said Early Walker, a philanthropist and business owner.
"I want to urge anybody that know something, say something. This could be you," said Tiffany Henyard, a business owner.
Hours after the shooting of Gaston, a 10-year-old girl was shot and killed. Police said the child was hit in the head by a stray bullet that came through a window of her Logan Square apartment.
