A driver crashed his vehicle after being fatally shot Sunday in suburban Berwyn.

Officers responded to a call of shots fired about 2:35 a.m. in the area of 13th Street and Wenonah Avenue and found a rolled over vehicle, Berwyn police said.

Brandon Corbin, 24, who was driving the vehicle, had been shot in the head, police said. He was taken to Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood where he was pronounced dead, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

His wife, who was riding in the vehicle, was also taken to a hospital, police said.

Investigators found that several males approached Corbin’s vehicle in an alley on Roosevelt Road and engaged him in conversation, police said.

When Corbin drove away, shots were fired in the direction of his vehicle, striking him in the head, police said. Corbin hit several parked cars after being shot, causing his car to overturn.
