A man was killed and another man was wounded in a drive-by shooting late Friday in the East Side neighborhood on the Far South Side.
The two men, ages 49 and 54, were getting out of a vehicle at 10:43 p.m. in the 10600 block of South Green Bay Avenue when someone shot at them from a white SUV, according to Chicago Police.
