CHATHAM — A 7-year-old girl was wounded in a shooting in Chatham on Monday, police said.
At 4:52 p.m., the girl received a graze wound to the head in the 7600 block of South St. Lawrence Avenue, said Officer Michelle Tannehil, a Chicago Police spokeswoman. 


The girl was taken to Comer Children's Hospital, where she was listed in good condition, Tannehill said.
Neighbors said that the block is usually quiet and shootings don't take place often.
Tony Davis, who has lived on the block for two years, said the family of the girl moved in eight months ago.
"It's usually quiet around here. I heard three shots," Davis said. "They just moved here. That's crazy."
Vaness Pitchford has lived on the block for the past 45 years. She was shocked to hear gunshots so close to her home.
"I heard two shots. It was real loud," Pitchford said. "I didn't know them. They haven't lived here long. It's devastating. This upsets me. I live next door."

If you sell digital products online you are no doubt aware of the two most popular affiliate networks, ClickBank and PayDotCom. While both of these are great and I highly recommend each of them, today I came across a brand new service that really caught my attention. It's called PaySpree and the reason it caught my attention is that ALL its members get paid for their sales instantly. And they can choose whether to be paid by PayPal, AlertPay or Credit Card. Even affiliates get paid for their referred sales instantly.
