At least seven people have reportedly been fatally shot and 37 others injured in Chicago so far this Labor Day weekend, amid the city's Democratic mayor's insistence he doesn't need President Donald Trump's efforts to combat crime.

This weekend's shooting,s as of Sunday morning, took place in a series of unrelated incidents across Chicago, according to Fox News.com.

Trump has suggested he may deploy the National Guard and other federal law enforcement to combat crime in the city. Homeland Security Kristie Noem said more federal resources will be sent to to Chicago, the country's third-largest city, to help with illegal immigration enforcement.

The victims of fatal shootings so far this weekend include at least two women and three men, also according to Fox News.
