After being shot Friday evening in the Archer Heights neighborhood on the Southwest Side, 21-year-old Carlos Rosas was able to get to a hospital on his own. But he died there less than 30 minutes later.
Officers responded to a call of shots fired at 6:48 p.m. in the 4900 block of South Kostner. They learned that Rosas had already taken himself to Mount Sinai Hospital, Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said.
He had been shot in his chest and neck, and was pronounced dead at the hospital at 7:12 p.m., authorities said. He lived less than two blocks from the scene of the shooting.
Area Central detectives were conducting a homicide investigation.
