Police were reviewing video Monday and looking for witnesses as they investigated the shootings of two girls, 11 and 12, in separate attacks on the South Side over the weekend.

Detectives have been trying to get people from the community to step forward, said Officer Mike Carroll, a police spokesman.

The girls remained in critical condition late Monday afternoon, two days after they were both shot in the head. The shootings occurred 30 minutes and 4 miles apart Saturday evening.

Takiya Holmes, 11, was sitting in a parked car with her mother, aunt and younger brother in the Parkway Gardens neighborhood around 8 p.m. when she was hit in the head by a stray bullet, police said.

Relatives at Comer Children’s Hospital said they were told by doctors that Takiya’s prognosis was “not good,” though she was communicating with family by blinking her eyes, relatives said.

“She’s not doing too well. It might be just a matter of time,” said Takiya’s cousin, community activist Andrew Holmes. “She has not responded.”

Half an hour before Takiya’s shooting, 12-year-old Kanari Gentry Bowers was shot while playing with friends at Henderson Elementary School in the West Englewood neighborhood, police said.

“Kanari wanted to be a judge, she said on Wednesday,” said Henderson Elementary School Principal Marvis Jackson-Ivy at a community event held Monday night at 57th Street and Winchester Avenue in West Englewood, where Kanari was shot.

Kanari was shot while playing basketball Saturday evening. Jackson-Ivy said shootings near the school are common and mentioned an October 2016 incident when students could not leave school to avoid walking past the crime scene. She said the school hires two officers every year so the kids can have recess outside.

“We’ve lost 50 students since September due to violence in the neighborhood,” she said. “They move to Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana—they moved out of the state.”

Earlier, Kanari’s family told reporters outside Stroger Hospital that on at least three occasions, paramedics and hospital staff couldn’t detect the girl’s heartbeat. She remained on life support and so far has not responded to her relatives, her family said.

“She’s a child and she was gunned down on the streets of Chicago … over nothing at all,” Kanari’s grandmother, Patricia Donald-Bowers, said Monday. “Right now she’s my priority. … All I can do is focus on her.”

Police said no one was in custody in either shooting.

Carroll said detectives were canvassing both areas for any private video and reviewing footage from city police cameras.

He said the shootings were not related and the girls were both unintended targets.

“Shooters were aiming at other individuals when the girls were hit by stray rounds,” Carroll said, adding the both shootings occurred in areas with “high gang conflicts.”
