CHICAGO — A man hospitalized after he was shot in the city's Pullman neighborhood Thursday afternoon is one of three people wounded by gunfire since Wednesday evening.

About 1:35 p.m., a 24-year-old man was shot in the 9600 block of South Greenwood Avenue, said Officer Ana Pacheco, a Chicago Police Department spokeswoman.

The man was taken to Advocate Trinity Hospital and treated for a gunshot wound to his foot, Pacheco said. The man's condition had stabilized.

Details surrounding the shooting were not immediately available.

A woman was shot in her head in Humboldt Park and another woman was wounded in Uptown in overnight shootings.

About 3:20 a.m. Thursday, a 24-year-old woman was shot in her right bicep in Uptown, said Officer Hector Alfaro, a Police Department spokesman.

The woman was driving east with two males in the 1200 block of West Lawrence Avenue when a man walked up and fired shots toward the car, police said. The woman was struck, and one of the passengers drove her to Weiss Memorial Hospital, where she was listed in good condition.

Hours earlier, a 44-year-old woman was shot in her head in Humboldt Park, Alfaro said.

The woman was inside her car in a gas station in the 900 block of North Pulaski Road when a male opened fire around 8:30 p.m., police said. The woman was taken in serious condition to Mount Sinai Hospital.

No one was in custody for either shooting.
