A man and woman were wounded Friday in a drive-by on the Near West Side.

About 5:50 p.m., the pair were on the sidewalk in the 200 block of South Western Avenue, when a white SUV pulled up to them and someone inside opened fire, Chicago police said.

The man, 30, was struck in the calf and the 25-year-old woman was grazed by a bullet on the buttocks, police said.

They were both taken to Stroger Hospital where they were stabilized, police said.

No one is in custody as Area Central detectives investigate.
