• Most recently, at 5:40 a.m. Sunday, a 22-year-old man was standing in the 6000 block of South Archer Avenue in Garfield Ridge when a man walked up and shot him in his groin and both his hands before fleeing on foot, Estrada said.
The man was brought to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where he was listed in serious condition, Estrada said.
