Three injured in shooting on South Side

Old news from yesterday but worth covering:
Three people were injured in a shooting in the South Side Park Manor neighborhood late Wednesday morning.

Chicago Police responded to reports of a shooting on the 6900 block of South King Drive about 11:32 a.m. Wednesday, according to News Affairs Officer Laura Kubiak, who said three males were injured.

Here's more from the Tribune:
Two men were taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition after what appears to be a drive-by shooting in the 6900 block of South Martin Luther King Drive, authorities said.

A third man who was shot in the hand and arm is being assessed at Provident Hospital, said Quention Curtis, a Chicago Fire Department spokesman.
One of the victims in critical condition was shot in the legs, the other in the back and arms.

All the victims were between 19 and 20, Curtis said.
I hope that they'll recover.
