CHICAGO (WLS) -- The man accused of firing bullets upward through a CTA subway grate downtown Chicago earlier this week is being held, pending trial. It was before 9 a.m. Monday, Memorial Day, when police say hidden gunfire erupted onto the street. The bullets, investigators say, were flying upward from subway air shafts underground. Cook County prosecutors said in court that gunman fired because he said he wanted people to know he was armed.

LYONS, Ill. (WLS) -- Removing and deporting the "worst first": That's what President Donald Trump and his administration have continued to tout about their plans for mass deportations since day one of his second administration.

ROME (WLS) -- When Pope Leo XIV steps out for his official installation on Sunday, the vestments he wears will speak, at least in some way, for him and his papacy. ABC7 Chicago's Liz Nagy interviewed the man who, more than likely, is crafting the pope's chosen liturgical wear. Deep in his shop in the Borgo in Rome sits Raniero Mancinelli, perched in his form of prayer: at the sewing machine. Fine Italian thread feeds through his olive green, stationary sewing machine.

CHICAGO (WLS) -- St. Peter's Square and the Vatican grounds are a dizzying whirl of Catholics and tourists clambering to be close to the church now under new leadership of its first American in history. For Chicagoans, the centuries old space is now even more sacred. "I'm very tired, but I'm so moved because we lost somebody very important to us yesterday, but coming here I feel closer to God," Kelley Kolar-Hellman from North Aurora said.
