LaSheena Weekly said on Friday, “I am here today to ask for peace in the city of Chicago. I am asking that his fans, friends of my son, to please not seek retaliation in the death of my son…As his mother, I want to say please put the guns down so that the generation of tomorrow can grow and live a long and healthy life.”
As we previously reported, FBG Duck (real name Carlton Weekly), was shopping Tuesday afternoon on the glitzy retail strip around 4:37 p.m. when two vehicles pulled up and four people exited before opening fire, hitting him in the chest, groin, and neck. The rapper’s mother said that he was shopping for a birthday present for his son — one of his four children — when he was killed. Weekly was pronounced dead at Northwestern Memorial Hospital a short time later. He was just 26-years-old.
Deputy Chief Daniel O’Shea also spoke about a possible retaliation and said, “We’re putting extra resources in the areas where we think there might be retaliation just as a precautionary measure.”
