    Paramedics transport a person who was wounded by gunfire at the scene where five people were shot near the intersection of East Chicago Avenue and North State Street Thursday May 19, 2022 in Chicago.

    CHICAGO — A mass shooting that started with a brawl among two groups of young people left two killed and seven wounded late Thursday, blocks from the Magnificent Mile, according to Chicago police, who say they have one person in custody.

    An additional victim had suffered burns, possibly from being injured on the nearby CTA Red Line subway, according to a witness and a Chicago Fire Dept. spokesman.

    The shooting happened about 10:40 p.m. in the 800 block of North State Street outside the Chicago Avenue subway station and a McDonald’s at 10 E. Chicago Ave. The gunfire during a fight outside the fast food outlet sent some fleeing into the Red Line station and saw one person injured on the tracks there.
