Four men were wounded in a shooting late Sunday on Interstate 57 near 127th Street.

The group was traveling in a vehicle about 11:45 p.m. on I-57 when someone inside another vehicle fired shots, according to preliminary information from Illinois State Police.

Four men inside the vehicle were struck by gunfire and were picked up by paramedics in the 8700 block of South State Street, state police and Chicago fire officials said.

Two men were transported in serious-to-critical condition to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, fire officials said on Twitter. The others were also taken in serious-to-critical condition to the University of Chicago Medical Center. State police said the injuries were not life-threatening.

Northbound lanes between 127th and 147th streets were closed until 5:10 a.m. for investigation, state police said.
