A man was fatally shot Friday night in the Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side.

Tyron Lee, 27, was standing on a sidewalk about 10:50 p.m. in the 100 block of South Albany Avenue, according to Chicago Police. Two males exited a silver car and then shot him, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office.

He was taken with gunshot wounds to his face and back to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

An autopsy Saturday afternoon ruled that Lee died from multiple gunshot wounds. His death was ruled a homicide.

Area North detectives were investigating the homicide.
