    Police were called about 9 p.m. to the 1300 block of East Florida Avenue on the South Side where officers found casings from three different weapons and three houses damaged, including one that sustained damage from the living room to an upstairs bedroom.

    A man at the home told police he thinks he was the intended target because of a shooting sometime Thursday or early Friday, reports said.

    No one was injured.

    At about 9:50 p.m., police were called for gunfire at a home on Burnett Street on the North Side. A pregnant woman told police when she heard the gunfire she dropped to the floor on her stomach, reports said. Reports said paramedics examined her, but she did not want to go to a hospital, reports said.

    Reports said that the home was “riddled” with bullets, and a nearby home was struck by two bullets. Officers recovered several shell casings in the street, according to a police report.

    No one was injured in this incident as well.
