Victor Sanjuanero was killed and another man was wounded in a shooting early Sunday just two blocks from his home in the South Side Back of the Yards neighborhood, Chicago Police said.

At 3:58 a.m., the men were standing in the street in the 4800 block of South Bishop when someone in a vehicle fired shots, according to police.

Sanjuanero, 25, was shot in the armpit and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:32 a.m., police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. He lived in the 4800 block of South Throop.

A 32-year-old man was shot in the right leg and buttocks, and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where his condition was stabilized, police said.

Red tape marked off the crime scene on Bishop between 48th and 49th streets. A group of males could be seen standing outside on the east side of Bishop.

“You guys shouldn’t be hanging around outside here,” a police officer in the street said to the group. “We tried to warn you.”
