From Fox News:
The family of a 7-year-old girl who was killed in Chicago’s rampant gun violence over the Fourth of July weekend is calling for change.
In a Tuesday appearance on “Hannity” with host Sean Hannity, Fox News contributor Lawrence Jones shared his interview with the family of Natalia “Natalie” Wallace, who was shot while playing outside of her grandmother’s house on Saturday night.
“Chicago’s heart is broke,” Police Chief of Patrol Fred Waller told The Chicago Tribune. “A 7-year-old girl was taken from us. She was here visiting family. Now she’s gone.”
Over the holiday weekend, the Chicago Police Department (CPD) reported 87 people shot and 17 killed from July 2 to July 5. According to The Chicago Sun-Times, 19 people were shot and three killed on Monday alone.
“Y’all gotta change. Y’all see the way y’all got things going now. It’s not working. How many kids [are] going to have to die before we realize we need to do better?” said Natalia’s father, Nathan Wallace.
“When you find out it’s one of your daughters or your sister or brother and then you will feel the pain that I feel, it shouldn’t have to come to that. I mean, we should be able to do something as a people, as a community to come together and strategize and think of something that’s a lot better than what’s going on now. Because, I mean, at this point…all our kids [are] dying out here [on] these streets.”
“I believe there should be. Hopefully, this point right now is a stepping stone. And, hopefully, things get taken care of,” he stated. “And, I’m so happy that my daughter’s name and ringing bells and…like that is shared over this horrific act.”

Rioters smashed windows and looted stores in Manhattan late Sunday night after assembling for citywide protests following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis; a situation Mayor Bill de Blasio described as “limited protest activity.”
“Fox News crews on the scene in SoHo reported hundreds of people stealing from luxury stores – including Chanel and Dior – for hours on Sunday night going into the early hours of Monday morning. The looters were seen piling shoplifted merchandise into vehicles while others rode off with the merchandise in black garbage bags balanced on CitiBikes,” reports Fox news.

“Most of the day we had large crowds throughout the city in multiple boroughs [on Sunday]. But when it got dark, things changed and it changed rapidly,” Shea said on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” on Monday morning. “We anticipated it, but you saw large groups of people had no inclination to all this protest once it got dark, particularly in the area of SoHo between Canal and West Broadway. We had a number of stores broken into.”
