A man was shot during a robbery Sunday night in the Little Village neighborhood on the Southwest Side.

About 9:30 p.m., the 58-year-old was exiting his business and walking to his car in the 3900 block of West Cermak when two males walked up, one of whom was armed with a gun, and demanded the man’s money, according to Chicago Police.

A struggle ensued, and the man suffered multiple gunshot wounds before the robbers ran away with unknown proceeds, police said. He was taken in serious condition to Mount Sinai Hospital.
