CHICAGO — One man is dead and at least four others were wounded in shootings citywide since Saturday afternoon.
The shootings took place in Ravenswood Manor, North Lawndale, Woodlawn, Englewood and Auburn Gresham.
In Englewood, a 19-year-old man heard shots and felt a bullet go through his back about 7:02 p.m. in the 7000 block of South Morgan Street, said Officer John Mirabelli, a police spokesman.
The teenager was sent to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn in critical condition, where he died at 2:05 a.m. Sunday morning, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office.
The man was identified as Marcus Rush, of the 2600 block of South King Drive in Bronzeville.
