LITTLE VILLAGE — Three people were hurt in shootings between Friday and Saturday morning, police said.

Most recently, around 3:40 a.m. Saturday, a 17-year-old was standing in the 2800 block of South St. Louis Avenue when he heard gunshots and felt pain, according to Officer Janel Sedevic, a Chicago Police spokeswoman.

The teen was brought to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was listed in good condition with a gunshot wound in his leg, Sedevic said.

Around 8:15 p.m. Friday night, two men were shot during an attempted robbery in the 3500 block of West 26th Street, Sedevic said.

One man, 25, was brought to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was released after being treated for a through-and-through gunshot wound in his thigh, Sedevic said.

The other man, 34, refused medical treatment after being shot in his ankle, Sedevic said.

No one is in custody for either shooting, Sedevic said.
