CHICAGO — Three people were hurt in separate shootings around the city between Saturday morning and Sunday morning, police said.

Most recently, around 1 a.m. Sunday, an 18-year-old man was shot in his back in Little Village, according to Officer Janel Sedevic, a Chicago Police spokeswoman.

About two hours earlier, Sedevic said, a 21-year-old man was walking in an alley off the 5600 block of South King Drive in Washington Park when someone shot at him out of a red sedan and fled.

The man walked into the University of Chicago Medical Center and was transferred to Mount Sinai Hospital, Sedevic said, where he was treated for gunshot wounds in his left arm and right foot. Police could not provide his condition but said he was "stable."

Police said the man is a self-admitted gang member.

Around 11:40 a.m. Saturday morning, a 22-year-old was grazed in his upper arm during a shooting in the 5900 block of West Division Street, Sedevic said.

The man refused medical attention on scene, Sedevic said.

Police said the man is a documented gang member and did not cooperate with investigating officers.
