CHICAGO — A shooting in West Pullman left a 26-year-old man dead and a 45-year-old woman wounded on Saturday morning, police said.
At 4:30 a.m., the victims were standing in the street in the 12200 block of South Green Street when a black SUV pulled alongside them and someone in the car fired shots, police said.
The man was hit in his head and he was taken to Metro South Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.
The man was identified as Jerrell Perkins, of the 800 block of West 122nd Street, in Cook County Medical Examiner's Office records. Perkins was pronounced dead at 4:46 a.m. and an autopsy showed he died from multiple gunshot wounds in a homicide.
The woman was hit in her left arm and left leg and she was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where her condition was not available but she was listed as "stable," police said.
The man was a documented gang member, a police source said, and the shooting appeared to be "gang-related."
No one was in custody.
