Three people were shot inside an apartment building Tuesday in Washington Park on the South Side.

They were inside the common area of a residential building about 5:51 p.m. in the first block of East Garfield Boulevard when a male approached them, pulled out a firearm and fired shots, Chicago police said.

A 32-year-old man was shot in the head and taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, police said.

An 18-year-old man, shot in shoulder and back, was treated at the same hospital, police said. His condition had stabilized.

A 48-year-old woman was grazed in the foot and declined medical attention, police said.

A weapon was recovered on the scene, and no one was in custody, police said. Area Central detectives are investigating.
