Two people were killed and four others were wounded in shootings in Chicago Thursday.

  • A woman was killed and another woman was wounded in Brighton Park around 6:10 p.m. The two were fighting with a group in the 2900 block of West 45th Street when someone opened fire, police said. A woman, 23, was struck in the arm and transported to Mount Sinai Hospital where she was pronounced dead, police said. She has not yet been identified. Another woman, 22, suffered a gunshot wound to the body and went to the same hospital in critical condition, police said.

No other details were immediately available.
  • Around the same time, a 29-ear-old man was sitting in his car in the 3800 block of West Belmont Avenue when he was shot in the right arm, police said. He was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center in fair condition, police said.
  • About 10 minutes later, a 20-year-old man was on the sidewalk in the 6400 block of South Bell Avenue when he was shot in the right leg, police said. He was taken to the University of Chicago in fair condition.
  • About an hour earlier, a 21-year-old woman was walking on the sidewalk in the 6900 block of South Justine Street when she was shot in the left foot, police said. She was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center in good condition, officials said.
