A man was killed and another hurt in a Back of the Yards neighborhood shooting Sunday morning on the South Side.
The men, ages 31 and 33, were sitting in a car parked in the 5400 block of South Laflin about 5:30 a.m. when shots were fired, hitting the younger man in the chest and grazing the older man’s head, according to Chicago Police
They were taken to Stroger Hospital, where the 31-year-old later died, police said. The Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed the death but withheld his name Sunday night pending notification of his family members.
The other man — who a police source said is a convicted felon — was treated and released.
About half an hour later, a 71-year-old man was shot to death in the same neighborhood.
