Anthony Shorter, wounded in a shooting on Thanksgiving a few blocks from his home in the West Side Austin neighborhood, died of his injuries on Monday.
Shorter, 32, was walking with a 35-year-old man and a third man about 11:45 p.m. Nov. 24 in the 1600 block of North Latrobe. An argument started and the third man pulled out a handgun and fired shots, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
Shorter was shot in the chest, abdomen and leg; and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he died at 2:22 a.m. Monday, according to police and the medical examiner’s office. He lived just a few blocks away in the 1700 block of North Lorel.
The older man was shot in the leg and was taken to West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park, where his condition was stabilized.
No one was in custody as of Wednesday morning.
