A 20-year-old man was killed in the Little Village neighborhood and at least six people were injured in shootings across Chicago early Saturday, police said.
The 20-year-old, Freddie Hernandez, was gunned down in an apparent drive-by shooting on the 2500 block of South Trumbull Avenue at about 2:40 a.m., officials said.
A neighbor, 17-year-old Anthony Briones, said he heard about eight shots and the screeching of car tires from his home two blocks from the scene.
When police arrived, Hernandez was lying on the sidewalk with multiple gunshots to the head, authorities said.
He was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 3:15 a.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
A van was seen leaving the scene, police said.
Area Central detectives are investigating the shooting, and no suspects are in custody, Gaines said.
