Two men were shot Monday afternoon in the South Side Englewood neighborhood.

They were sitting on a porch in the 5600 block of South Morgan about noon when a male walked up and started firing shots, according to Chicago Police.

A 26-year-old man was shot in the hand, and a 19-year-old man was shot in the left side of the back, police said. Both were taken to Stroger Hospital, where the older man was listed in good condition and the younger man in serious condition.

A police source said both victims are documented gang members.
