Two men were wounded in a shooting Sunday in Albany Park on the West Side.

They were walking at 2:22 a.m. in the 3800 block of West Lawrence Avenue when they heard shots and felt pain, according to Chicago police. The victims told investigators they didn’t see the shooter or know where the shots came from, but that they saw someone in all black clothing running away from the area.

A 26-year-old man was shot in the leg and was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, police said. The other man, 27, suffered a graze wound to the leg and was treated by paramedics at the scene. Both are in good condition.

No one is in custody as Area North detectives investigate.
