A 15-year-old boy was among three people shot in the Austin neighborhood on the West Side early Saturday.

The three were eating as they sat in a car in the 5400 block of West Ferdinand about 3:05 a.m. when someone walked up and shot them, police said.

The teen boy was shot in the right arm and also suffered a graze wound to his left arm, police said. One man, 22, was shot in the left knee, while the other man, also 22, was shot in both feet.

All three were taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in good condition, police said.
