A 29-year-old man told investigators that he was walking in the 8000 block of South Ingleside when someone in a blue Buick fired shots, striking him in the left leg, according to Chicago Police. He later showed up at Jackson Park Hospital, where his condition was stabilized.
About 20 minutes earlier, a 15-year-old boy was shot in the East Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side.

The day’s first shooting happened minutes earlier in a separate incident in Austin. At 3:01 p.m., a 20-year-old woman was in the 700 block of North Pine when a dark-blue SUV drove by and someone inside fired shots, police said. The woman was shot in the upper body and taken to Stroger Hospital, where she was in good condition.
Monday’s gun violence followed a weekend in which eight people were killed, including a 64-year-old woman who was struck by a stray bullet, and at least 11 other people were wounded in shootings across Chicago between Friday evening and Monday morning.
