A man is in good condition after being shot on an Uptown street early Saturday, police said. No one is in custody.
The victim, age 27, was in the 600 block of West Lawrence when he heard gunfire and realized he had been shot around 12:20 a.m., according to initial information from Chicago police. He told investigators that he did not know where the gunshots came from or who shot him, police said.
Witnesses reported seeing a white SUV speed westbound on Lawrence after the shooting.
