An employee was shot in the buttocks Thursday during an attempted robbery at a Lawndale business on the Southwest Side.
A gunman walked into an office about 8 a.m. in the 2300 block of South Keeler and demanded money from the man, Chicago police said.
The robber proceeded to punch the 45-year-old in the face and shot him, police said.
The shooter ran, and the man was taken to Mt. Sinai Hospital in good condition.
A police spokeswoman could not immediately confirm if the shooter took any money.
