Two people were shot Saturday night in the Homan Square neighborhood on the West Side.

A 21-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy were standing on the sidewalk about 10:50 p.m. in the 3500 block of West Grenshaw when they heard shots and realized they’d been hit, according to Chicago Police.

The woman was shot in the lower back and the boy was shot in the right leg, police said. Both of their conditions were stabilized at Mount Sinai Hospital.

A police source said the boy is a documented gang member.
