ROGERS PARK— A man was wounded in a Rogers Park shooting early Monday morning, police said. 

At 4:25 a.m., a 27-year-old man was on the sidewalk in the 1800 block of West Birchwood Avenue when someone in a light-colored sedan got out the car and shot him in the leg, said Officer Ana Pacheco, a Chicago Police spokeswoman. The man was taken to St. Francis Hospital where he is listed in "stable" condition, Pacheco said.

The man is a documented gang member, police said. 

No one is in custody, Pacheco said.
