A teenage girl was among two people wounded in a shooting Thursday evening in the Gresham neighborhood on the South Side.

The pair was driving at 6:51 p.m. in the 900 block of West 87th Street when two males walked up to their vehicle and opened fire, according to Chicago police.

The 17-year-old girl was struck in her hand and abdomen, while a 29-year-old man was shot in both legs, police said. They were both taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn and listed in good condition.

Area South detectives are investigating.
