One man was killed and another was wounded Sunday evening in a shooting in the West Pullman neighborhood on the Far South Side.

The two were shot at 6:03 p.m. in the 11900 block of South Michigan Avenue, according to Chicago Police.

Terrance Day, 21, was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead, police and the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office said. He lived in West Pullman.

An autopsy Monday found he died of a gunshot wound to the back and his death was ruled a homicide, the medical examiner’s office said. Police initially reported that he’d been shot in the back.

A 26-year-old was shot in the right thigh and was taken to the same hospital where his condition stabilized, police said.
