BRIDGEPORT — Two men were shot and wounded while driving in Bridgeport late Friday night, police said.

Around 11:15 p.m., the men were driving westbound in the 1000 block of 32nd Street when someone shot at them from a car driving behind them, according to Officer Janel Sedevic, a Chicago Police spokeswoman.

One of the men, 21, drove to Mercy Hospital, Sedevic said, where his condition "stabilized" after he was treated for a gunshot wound in his buttocks. Police did not say the extent of his injuries.

The other man, 26, refused medical treatment after suffering a graze wound in his armpit, Sedevic said.

No one is in custody, Sedevic said.
