CHICAGO — Three people were wounded in shootings from Thursday night to Friday morning.

Most recently, about 1:20 a.m. Friday,  a 33-year-old man was shot in his hip in the 7600 block of South Essex Avenue, in the South Shore neighborhood. The man refused medical attention, said Officer Amina Greer, a Chicago Police Department spokeswoman.

Around 10:40 p.m. Thursday, a 21-year-old woman was shot in her arm in Longwood Manor. The woman was sitting in a car in the 9600 block of South Princeton Avenue when a van pulled up and someone inside fired shots. The woman drove herself to Little Company of Mary Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition, Greer said.

About an hour earlier, a 31-year-old man was shot in his ankle after an argument with another man. The shooting occurred around 9:30 p.m. in the 1200 block of West 79th Street. The man was taken to St. Bernard Hospital in good condition, said Officer Janel Sedovic, a Police Department spokeswoman.

No one is in custody for the shootings.
