CHICAGO — Two men were wounded Monday night in separate shootings on the city's Northwest and South sides, police said.

A 38-year-old man is in serious condition after he was shot inside his home in 4000 block of West 21st Place in the North Lawndale neighborhood.

About 10:40 p.m. Monday, a member of the household received a phone call from a "known offender," said Officer Amina Greer, a police spokeswoman.

Moments later, shots were fired outside the home. A bullet came through a window frame of the home and hit the 38-year-old in his groin, Greer said.

The man was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital in serious condition, Greer said. As of Tuesday morning, no one was in custody in connection with the shooting, but police were questioning several people.

Earlier Monday night, a 32-year-old man was shot in Logan Square.

The man was walking in the 2000 block of North Pulaski Road about 9:30 p.m. when he was confronted by two men, police said.

The two men shouted gang slogans before pulling out a gun and opening fire. The 32-year-old was shot in his arm and drove himself to St. Mary Medical Center, where he was treated and released, police said.

No one was in custody in connection with the shooting as of Tuesday morning.
