A man was killed and three teens were wounded in a domestic shooting in south suburban Oak Forest on Sunday evening, police said.

Oak Forest police responded to a call of shots fired in the 5500 block of Babette Court about 5:10 p.m. and found three people with gunshot wounds, according to Oak Forest police. One of those people, 39-year-old Oak Forest resident Mohannad Othman, was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died of a gunshot wound to the head, according to the Oak Forest police and the Cook County medical examiners office.

Police later found a vehicle that was involved in the incident in the 5900 block of 159th Street. One person in the car had suffered a gunshot wound and was taken to a nearby hospital.

A 12-year-old girl — who had been standing in a neighboring driveway when she was shot — had stabilized Monday morning, and a 19-year-old man was treated at a hospital and released. A 19-year-old woman was shot in her leg and was being treated.

The other person in the car was detained by police.
