A 27-year-old man died Saturday after he was shot while driving in Brainerd on the South Side.

About 2:45 p.m, he was driving south in the 9100 block of South Aberdeen Street, when he heard gunshots and was struck in his back and right leg, Chicago police said.

He got into a different vehicle and was taken to Little Company of Mary Hospital in Evergreen Park, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office confirmed the death but did not identify the man, saying in an autopsy Sunday that he died of multiple gunshot wounds. His death was ruled a homicide.

Area South detectives are investigating the shooting.
