Unidentified Man Fatally Shot in Drive-By Incident in Chicago's Roseland NeighborhoodSource: Chicago Police Department

Early Tuesday, in Chicago's Roseland neighborhood a fatal shooting occurred, as reported by the Chicago Sun-Times. An unidentified man, estimated to be between the ages of 35 and 45, was shot multiple times by an assailant in a moving red vehicle. The incident took place in the 9900 block of South Princeton Avenue around 1 a.m.

Officials declared the man dead at the scene. Despite the presence of multiple gunshot wounds, the victim's identity remains unknown at this time, as does the make and model of the red vehicle involved in the shooting. Chicago police have not made any arrests, and Area 2 detectives are diligently investigating the circumstances surrounding the drive-by, the Sun-Times added.

Additional coverage from FOX 32 Chicago echoed the Sun-Times report, placing the same shooting in Fernwood, presumably a different designation of the same area in Chicago's Far South Side. The reports converge on the location, time, and fatal outcome.

The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office has yet to release details regarding the identity of the deceased, leaving a void in the information that often brings some measure of closure to such a senseless act of violence. Similarly, the Chicago police are yet to provide specifics on the red vehicle, which remains a key piece of interest in the ongoing investigation, according to FOX 32 Chicago.
