A man was shot in the West Englewood neighborhood on the South Side Tuesday afternoon.

The 38-year-old was in a vehicle in the 5700 block of South Bishop about 3:45 p.m. when he got into an argument with a group of males standing on the sidewalk, police said. One of the people on the sidewalk eventually pulled a gun and shot the man in the left calf, police said.

He took himself to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where his condition stabilized, police said.
