A man has died after being gunned down while getting into his vehicle on the city's South Side.
CHICAGO - A security guard at a Foot Locker store in Chatham was fatally shot while getting into his vehicle Thursday night.
The shooting happened at 7:20 p.m. in the 8600 block of S. Cottage Grove.
The guard, a 29-year-old man, was getting into his car when a blue vehicle pulled up next to him. The suspects inside the blue vehicle then pulled guns and started firing at the man before speeding away, according to Chicago police.
He was shot in the face and twice in his lower body.
The guard was taken to The University of Chicago Hospital in critical condition but later succumbed to his injuries. His identity hasn't been released.
