A man was shot Friday evening in the Humboldt Park neighborhood on the West Side.

At 8:31 p.m., the 29-year-old man was working on his vehicle in the 3300 block of West Beach when someone got out of a black vehicle and fired shots, hitting him in the leg, according to Chicago Police.

He took himself to Norwegian Hospital and was then taken to Stroger Hospital, where his condition was stabilized, police said.
