Three people were wounded Tuesday afternoon in a shooting in West Garfield Park on the West Side.

Around 2:10 p.m., they were near a sidewalk in the 3900 block of West Gladys Avenue when a vehicle approached and someone inside began shooting, Chicago police said.

A male was struck in the leg, while another was shot in the shoulder, police said. Both were taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in good condition.

A 26-year-old man was grazed in the calf but refused medical attention, officials said.

No one is in custody. Area Four detectives are investigating.

Less than 24 hours earlier, a man was shot a few blocks away in the 3500 block of West Fulton Street.

Around 4:10 p.m. Monday, the man, 22, was standing outside when someone in a light-colored vehicle opened fire and struck him in the neck, police said. He was taken to Mount Sinai in critical condition.
