CHICAGO — A teenager was stabbed and two people shot, one fatally, in violence across the city Wednesday, officials said.
In Kenwood, two men were shot about 4:57 p.m. in the 4500 block of South Woodlawn Avenue, said Officer Daniel O'Brien, police spokesman.
A 26-year-old man was found dead inside a vehicle, shot several times. A 20-year-old man was shot in his foot and was in good condition, O'Brien said. The shooting took place on the same block as Ariel Community Academy.
The 26-year-old man was pronounced dead at Northwestern Memorial Hospital at 5:56 p.m., according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office. He was identified as Donnerick McGhee, of the 200 block of Oglesby Avenue in Calumet City.
Both victims had documented gang affiliations, police said.
Adrianna Green, 24, who studies criminal justice student at Harold Washington College and lives near where the shooting took place, was surprised by the violence.
Green was doing homework when she heard two gunshots.
"It's not the Fourth of July anymore, so I know it's not no firecrackers," she said.
Green said she doesn't see any gang activity on the block and suspects the men came from outside the neighborhood.
"This is a great neighborhood; I would never expect this," Green said. "Chicago just keeps getting worse and worse — it's not getting any better anywhere you go."
Earlier, a 15-year-old boy was in critical condition after being stabbed in Roseland.
The boy was stabbed four times about 1:35 p.m. in the 100 block of West 95th Street, said police and fire officials.
The boy was taken in critical condition to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where his condition stabilized, authorities said.
No further information was immediately available.
