Yesterday, as the world’s eyes were fixed on the shooting of two journalists on live TV in Virginia, two separate tragedies were unfolding elsewhere.

In West Palm Beach, Fl., a drive-by shooting left two dead and two wounded. It raised the total homicide count for Palm Beach County to 62 so far this year, the Palm Beach Post reported.

About 1,300 miles away, a man was killed and three others were wounded in a shooting at a Chicago park. Throughout the day, at least eight people were wounded by gunfire in the city, the Chicago Tribune noted.

It has been a hot and bloody summer. Since June 21st, the first day of the season, there have been 93 mass shootings in the United States, according to ShootingTracker.com, a crowdsourced site. A shooting in Salinas, Ca. that killed two and left two wounded happened just as I was writing this.
