A man was killed and a woman wounded Sunday morning in a Bronzeville establishment on the South Side.

The two were in the 4600 block of South King Drive about 12:20 a.m. when gunfire erupted after an argument between the man and a group of males, Chicago police said. The argument started after someone stepped on the woman’s shoes, according to preliminary information.

Jordan Deante Kimble, 25, was shot in the neck, arm and torso and was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where he died to his injuries, police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said.

The woman, 27, was shot in the chin and was taken to the same hospital, where she was in fair condition, police said.

No one was in custody.
