A man was killed and another was shot Monday in West Englewood on the South Side.

About 2:35 p.m., the 24 and 37-year-old men were in the 7300 block of South Seeley Avenue when a sedan pulled up, Chicago police said. The men ran and someone in the sedan fired shots.

The 24-year-old man was shot in the arm and side, police said. He was pronounced dead at Holy Cross Hospital.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the man as being Shanon Steward. He lived in Englewood. Autopsy results Tuesday found he died from his wounds and ruled his death a homicide.

The 37-year-old was shot in the torso and was taken to the same hospital in good condition, police said.

Area Two detectives are investigating.

Chicago Cubs' broadcaster Harry Caray sings "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch at Chicago's Wrigley Field in 1989.

Why did Harry Caray always say ‘Holy Cow?’ It could be linked to a 1930s flying bovine. No bull!
In 1930, a 15-year-old Harry Caray was living in St. Louis when the city hosted an aircraft exhibition honoring aviator Charles Lindbergh. “The ‘first ever’ cow to fly in an airplane was introduced at the exhibition,” said Grant DePorter, Harry Caray restaurants manager. “She became the most famous cow in the world at the time and is still listed among the most famous bovines along with Mrs. O’Leary’s cow and ‘Elsie the cow.’”
