Officials Monday were still looking for a gunman who caused a standoff with Chicago police after allegedly shooting a man to death in Auburn Gresham last week.
The shooting occurred about 8:30 p.m. Friday in the 8400 block of South Vincennes Avenue, where the victim, a 29-year-old man, was shot in the head and was pronounced dead about an hour later, Chicago police said.
During the investigation into the attack, officers found the gunman had fled into a nearby home after shooting the 29-year-old in an argument, police said.
The gunman then barricaded himself inside the home, prompting a SWAT team response, which later ended when they entered the home and didn’t find anyone.
An autopsy Saturday determined the still-unidentified victim died of multiple gunshot wounds, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office. His death was ruled a homicide.
Police on Monday were still looking for the gunman.
