CHICAGO — A 49-year-old carjacking victim was among five people shot citywide Wednesday.
The carjacking occurred about 8 p.m. in the 2000 block of North Richmond Street in Logan Square, said Officer Janel Sedevic, a police spokeswoman. The victim was sitting in his 1999 Chevy Tahoe when two men walked up.
One pulled a gun and demanded the man get out of his car, Sedevic said. He complied, but was shot in the chest and thigh. The carjackers drove off with his beige SUV, which has the Illinois license plate K489983.
The victim is in critical condition at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center.
No one is in custody.
