A 30-year-old man was shot and killed Saturday in Marquette Park on the South Side.

According to a witness, a male wearing a red shirt with a slender build approached Francisco J. Lopez about 12:59 a.m. in the 3000 block of West 64th Street and unleashed gunfire, Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. The male fled southbound on Whipple Street.

Lopez was shot multiple times in the body and was pronounced on the scene, police said. An autopsy Sunday ruled his death a homicide by multiple gunshot wounds, the medical examiner’s office said.

No one is in custody, and Area Central detectives are investigating.
