Two people were wounded, one fatally, in a shooting Monday in Bronzeville on the South Side, police said.

About 5 p.m., a 24-year-old man was in the 4700 block of South Calumet Avenue when two males fired shots at him, striking him in the torso, back and buttocks, Chicago police said.

The man was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

A 47-year-old woman who was not the intended target was grazed in the leg by a bullet, police said. She was taken to the same hospital in good condition.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office hasn’t released details on the fatality.

Area One detectives are investigating.
