HUMBOLDT PARK — Three people were wounded in two separate shootings in Humboldt Park Tuesday evening, police said.

Just after 5 p.m., two 26-year-old men were walking in the 800 block of North Harding Avenue when someone walked up and shot at them, according to Officer Kevin Quaid, a Chicago Police spokesman.

One of the men was shot in his arm and his shin, and the other was shot in his foot, Quaid said. Both were taken to Norwegian Hospital, where they were listed in good condition.

Around 7:10 p.m., a 16-year-old boy was walking in the 3400 block of West Iowa Street when someone shot at him out of a passing black car, police said.

The boy was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital with a gunshot wound in his stomach, Quaid said. Police could not provide his condition but said he was "stable."

Police said the boy is a documented gang member. 

No one is in custody, Quaid said.
