The 43 homicides last month tied for the third-highest total for any February in Chicago in the past 25 years, department data shows.
That’s one more than the city recorded through the first two months of 2021 — a year that ended with nearly 800 homicides.
According to the CPD data, 167 people were shot in 147 separate shooting incidents in February. Both of those figures are down slightly compared to February 2021, and the total number of shootings thus far this year is down 6% over the same time last year. The CPD said there have been 306 vehicular hijackings year-to-date, which marks an 11% decrease compared to the first two months of 2021. According to the department, Chicago officers have made 238 motor vehicle-related arrests this year, including 47 for vehicular hijacking.
