Four men shot on South Side

Four men were shot late Monday night in the South Side Englewood neighborhood, officials said.

The men were outside around 11:41 p.m. in the 7000 block of South Bishop when an unknown man approached on foot and fired at them, police said.

Two men ­— 22 and 25 — were taken in serious condition to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, both with gunshot wounds to the abdomen, police said.

A 21-year-old was taken in serious condition to Mount Sinai Hospital with gunshot wounds to both legs, and a 19-year-old was taken to Holy Cross Hospital with a gunshot wound to the toe.

No one was in custody early Tuesday.
