A 36-year-old north suburban man was shot to death early Monday in the Ukrainian Village neighborhood.

Marlon Pollard was standing outside about 1:10 a.m. in the 2200 block of West Chicago when someone in a black SUV nearby opened fire, striking him in the abdomen, face and left leg, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

Pollard was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he died at 2:05 a.m., authorities said. He lived in the 1400 block of Darrow Avenue in Evanston.

The shooting was considered gang-related. No one was in custody Monday night.
