About 10:45 a.m., the trio were on a sidewalk in the 1200 block of South Central Park Avenue when someone in a passing SUV opened fire, according to Chicago Police.

A 30-year-old man was shot in the chin, left shoulder and thigh; a 19-year-old man was shot twice in the abdomen; and a 35-year-old man was hit in the right hand, police said.

They were taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where their conditions stabilized, police said.
