    Brown's Chicken massacre

    Seven people were killed at a Brown's Chicken restaurant in Palatine, Illinois, on January 8, 1993. The victims included the location's two owners and five employees. The crime caused a severe commercial impact on the chain, with reported sales falling by 35 percent within months and the company later closing 100 Chicago-area restaurants.
