A man was killed and a woman wounded Wednesday in a shooting in Bronzeville on the South Side.

Two gunmen opened fire after they approached the pair sitting in a vehicle in the 3700 block of South Indiana Avenue, according to a statement from Chicago police.

Paramedics picked up two gunshot victims about 2:20 p.m. at 32nd Street and Indiana Avenue, according to Chicago fire spokesman Larry Langford.

He was identified as Lomante Barnes of South Chicago by the Cook County medical examiner’s office. An autopsy ruled his death a homicide.

A 19-year-old woman with a graze wound went to the same hospital in good condition, police said.
