Glenn Wheeler was killed and another man was wounded in a shooting Tuesday afternoon in the Back of the Yards neighborhood on the South Side.
Wheeler, 24, and a 19-year-old were traveling in a vehicle at 4:37 p.m. in the 900 block of West Garfield when another vehicle pulled up and someone inside fired shots, authorities said.
Wheeler suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the abdomen and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 6:02 p.m., according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He lived in the 5200 block of South Wood.
The younger man was also taken to Stroger in critical condition with a gunshot wound to the back, police said.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help offset funeral costs.
