Five people were shot, one of them fatally, Tuesday in Chicago, including a man who was shot to death inside a restaurant in Austin on the West Side.
About 6:40 p.m., someone walked into the restaurant in the 5500 block of West Chicago Avenue, pulled out a gun and fired shots at a 30-year-old man inside, Chicago police said. The man was struck in the chest and taken to Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, where he was pronounced dead. The Cook County medical examiner’s office has not identified the man.
In non-fatal shootings, a man was shot in Englewood on the South Side. The man, 26, was outside on a porch about 7:40 p.m. in the 400 block of West Normal Parkway when someone fired shots, striking him multiple times in the lower body, police said. A relative brought the man to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where he was in fair condition. He told officers he didn’t see the shooter or know where the shots came from.
