One man was killed and another wounded Monday afternoon in an Englewood neighborhood shooting on the South Side.

The two were sitting in a car about 3:30 p.m. in the 7000 block of South Sangamon when another vehicle drove by and someone inside opened fire, according to Chicago Police.

Maurice L. Hilliard, 25, was taken to St. Bernard Hospital and later transferred to Stroger Hospital, where he died at 6:01 p.m. of a gunshot wound to the neck, according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He lived in the 4700 block of South Sangamon.

The other man, 20, was in good condition at St. Bernard with an arm wound.

No one was in custody for the shooting Monday night as Area South detectives investigate.
