CHICAGO — Two men were wounded in overnight shootings in the South Side since Friday night, police said.

Most recently in West Englewood, a 27-year-old man was driving in the 1200 block of West 62nd Street around 2:20 a.m., when he heard shots and felt pain, said Officer Jose Estrada, a Chicago Police spokesman, citing preliminary information.
