In this July 5, 2016 photo, Ruby Mack, stands with 5 of her grandchildren as Englewood neighborhood residents gather for a meeting with Chicago police on the South Side of Chicago. The meeting was set up in response to two children, ages 4 and 6, being shot on the 4th of July 2016. With a spike in killings and shootings this year in Chicago, statistics show more bullets are hitting children as they do normal kid things like play with sparklers, draw on the sidewalk or hold a mother’s hand.
