A man was killed, and another man was seriously wounded, in a drive-by Monday night in University Village on the Near West Side.
About 11:10 p.m., the men, 24 and 56, were outside with a large group of people in the 1300 block of West 13th Street, when two males inside a passing black Hyundai Elantra fired shots at them, Chicago police said.
The 56-year-old man was struck in the head and pronounced dead at the scene, police said. He has not yet been identified.
The younger man was struck in the stomach and arm, and taken to UIC Hospital, where he is in serious condition, police said.
The 24-year-old, who is a concealed-carry license holder, returned fire, but it is unknown if either shooter was struck, police said. The vehicle carrying the shooters crashed into a parked car, and the pair fled the scene on foot.
