Three people were wounded Saturday morning in two separate shootings at about the same time in West Town and West Garfield Park.

Two men, 25 and 34, were on the sidewalk about 1:35 a.m. when they were both shot in the leg in the 2100 block of West Division Street on the Northwest Side, Chicago police said.

The younger man self-transported to Rush University Medical Center, where he was in good condition, police said.

The older man self-transported to Saints Mary and Elizabeth Medical Center and was transferred to Stroger Hospital, also in good condition, police said.

He was taken to Stroger, where he was in critical condition, police said.

No one from either attack was in custody.
