The shooting happened around 1:45 a.m. on the southbound ramp to 130th Street, according to Illinois State Police.

The man, a 49-year-old Calumet Park resident, was pronounced dead at the scene, police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. His name hasn’t been released.

The ramp was closed between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. for an investigation, state police said.

He was one of at least nine people killed in gun violence across Chicago over the weekend.
