The men got into an argument with another person about 11:40 a.m. in the 13100 block of South Langley, according to Chicago Police. The other person then pulled out a handgun and opened fire.

The older man, identified as the 26-year-old McKnight, suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and side, and was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:08 p.m., according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He lived in the 3700 block of South Wells.

The younger man, 20, was shot in the upper chest and left arm, and was able to take himself to 131st and St. Lawrence, from where he called 911. He was then taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where his condition was stabilized.
