A 65-year-old man was shot repeatedly Monday evening in the Humboldt Park neighborhood on the West Side.

About 5:30 p.m., the man was on a sidewalk in the 1000 block of North Monticello when he saw the shooter fire into a group of people, according to Chicago police. The suspect then ran up to the man and shot him multiple times in his upper body.

He was taken to Stroger Hospital, where his condition was stabilized, police said.

Three people were taken into custody, police said. Charges against them were pending Wednesday morning.

Area North detectives are investigating.
