Two men were shot, one fatally, Friday afternoon in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side.

The men, ages 39 and 26, were sitting on a porch just after 2:30 p.m. in the 6700 block of South Loomis when someone ran out of a gangway and began shooting at the pair, according to Chicago Police.

The older man, identified as 39-year-old Shawn Euing, was shot in the chest and pronounced dead at the scene at 2:50 p.m., according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He lived on the same block where the shooting happened.

The 26-year-old was shot in the right leg and lower back and taken to Holy Cross Hospital, where his condition was stabilized, police said.

A police source said the younger man is a documented gang member.
