Three people were wounded in a Lawndale neighborhood shooting early Sunday on the West Side.

About 12:15 a.m., the group was standing on a corner in the 3000 block of West Arthington when a male walked up and opened fire, according to Chicago Police.

A 32-year-old man was shot in the left leg, a 26-year-old woman was shot in the chest, and a 27-year-old man suffered gunshot wounds to the face and left leg. All three were taken to Mount Sinai Hospital.

Additional information was not immediately available.
