A downstate man has died more than a year after he was wounded in a Far South Side shooting.

Maurice Wooden, 51, was shot multiple times about 1:30 p.m. May 20, 2013, in the 9600 block of South Halsted Street, authorities said. Officers found him lying on the floor of a residence with gunshot wounds to the neck, shoulder and chest, police said.

Investigators learned a shooter kicked in the bedroom door, fired shots and then fled, police said.

Wooden, of the 1600 block of Edgewood Drive in Danville, died at Kindred Chicago Central Hospital at 5:55 a.m. Tuesday, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

An autopsy found he died of complications of multiple gunshot wounds and ruled his death a homicide, the medical examiner’s office said. Diabetes and heart disease were also listed as secondary factors.

No one has been charged for the murder, police said.

Area South detectives are investigating.
