Man shot in Portage Park

A man was shot Saturday night in the Portage Park neighborhood on the Northwest Side.

Officers responded about 11:10 p.m. to a call of a person shot in the 3500 block of North Lavergne and found the 25-year-old man had already been taken from the scene by paramedics and was en route to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, according to Chicago Police.

The shooting may have happened during a carjacking, wherein two people in masks pulled the man from his vehicle, opened fire, then took his vehicle and sped away on Ashland, police said.

He suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen, police said. His condition was stabilized.

No one was in custody early Sunday as Area North detectives investigated the incident.
