CHICAGO — At least three people were shot, one fatally, Wednesday night and Thursday.
Police responding to a call of shots fired in Auburn Gresham found a 29-year-old man on the ground with a gunshot wound in his chest about 2:15 a.m. Thursday, said Officer Hector Alfaro, a police spokesman.
The man was "unresponsive on the sidewalk" in the 8100 block of South Marshfield Avenue.
Police said the victim was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office, however, claims the victim was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center.
Corey Williams of the 6000 block of South Richmond Street was pronounced dead at 3:15 a.m., according to the Cook County Medical Examiner.
No one was in custody.
In non-fatal shootings:
• A 29-year-old man was shot in his left thumb and right shoulder during a domestic dispute in South Lawndale around 1:30 a.m. Thursday, Alfaro said.
According to police, the man was arguing with his girlfriend inside a residence in the 2300 block of South Central Park Avenue when another man tried to intervene. The fight soon escalated and the second man pulled a gun, shooting the victim.
The shooter, who cops described as the victim's girlfriend's mother's boyfriend, has been taken into custody. Charges are pending.
The victim, who cops described as "intoxicated," was treated at Mount Sinai Hospital.
• In Washington Park, a 20-year-old man was shot in his upper left thigh while standing in the 5800 block of South Wabash Avenue about 11 p.m. Wednesday, Alfaro said. The man was treated at Stroger Hospital.
