A man was found shot to death Sunday in Marquette Park on the Southwest Side.

Officers responding to reports of gunfire at 2:59 a.m. found the 31-year-old man unresponsive on a porch in the 6700 block of South Maplewood Avenue, according to Chicago police.

He was shot multiple times and taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the man as Kourtney William, of West Englewood. Autopsy results Monday found he died of his gunshot wounds and ruled his death a homicide.

Police have not located any witnesses to the shooting and no arrests have been reported as Area One detectives investigate.
