A man was killed and a woman was injured in a drive-by shooting Monday night during a barbecue in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side.

The pair were barbecuing about 11:25 p.m. outside in a vacant lot in the 6600 block of South Union when a black SUV drove by and someone inside opened fire, according to Chicago Police.
