In the 2900 block of East 83rd Street, Chicago, on Saturday, September 24, around 3:10 p.m., a 27-year-old man found himself on the receiving end of unexpected and violent aggression.
Approached by two unknown offenders, at least one assailant brandished a handgun and opened fire, according to the Chicago Police Department.
The man suffered gunshot wounds to his body but was quickly transported to the University of Chicago Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries.
Initial reports described his condition as good, which proved a small relief amidst the chaos and aftermath of the shocking event.
Despite ongoing efforts, no arrests have as yet been made – and the assailants, their motives decidedly unclear, remain at large. As per their report, updates on the investigation are expected as new information emerges.
