Just after noon, Mark Jenkins, 32, was outside in the 5200 block of West Adams Street when four people stepped out of a gray sedan and at least one of them opened fire, striking him multiple times, according to Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.
