In addition, a 20-year-old man was killed as he sat in a car in Austin and a 24-year-old man was killed in Garfield Park, police said.

A 32-year-old man was shot in the buttocks in the 6100 block of South Carpenter Street in West Englewood and two 17-year-olds were shot in the 4100 block of West 25th Street in Little Village, said Officer Jose Estrada, a Chicago Police spokesman.

At 3:37 a.m., a 33-year-old man was in the 3300 block of West Lexington Street on the West Side when a man walked up to him, robbed him and shot him in his arm. The man was taken to Stroger Hospital in good condition, Estrada said.
