Both were taken to a local hospital.
While police searched for the suspect, nearby residents were asked to remain indoors.
The shooting appeared to have stemmed from a domestic dispute.
The suspect, who police identified as Aaron Conley, 24, of Aurora, was taken into custody Monday morning around 6 a.m. after he turned himself in.
One resident said he heard "two rounds of multiple gunshots, I mean multiple. Probably six to 12 rounds at first. I though it was a garbage truck or something, a dumpster falling over. I didn't know what it was. And then there was a pause and then there was another round. I stepped out on my balcony and saw an individual wearing all black, black hoodie, black pants, ran from the building to the park. That's exactly where the SWAT team's searching."
The shooting also affected Metra trains in the area as multiple trains would not operate near the Route 59 station.
