A shooting Saturday afternoon in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side left one man dead. He is at least the seventh shooting victim since 12 a.m. Saturday, police said.


At 3:10 p.m. someone shot the male victim multiple times in the abdomen in the 5500 block of South Loomis Boulevard, according to police News Affairs Officer Daniel O’Brien.

The victim, a man in his 20s, was taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County where he was pronounced dead at 3:52 p.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.


A separate shooting a few hours earlier in the Back of the Yards neighborhood left another victim shot in the abdomen and seriously wounded.





Someone shot the male in the abdomen at 11:48 a.m. in the 4500 block of South Marshfield Avenue, according to Chicago Police Department News Affairs Officer Michael Sullivan.


He was taken to John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County in serious condition, Sullivan said.


The circumstances surrounding the shooting were not known immediately but Sullivan said no one was arrested.


Earlier Saturday, four people were shot in two separate incidents before the sun rose, and a fifth man was killed in a West Side shooting.
