CHICAGO (CBS) Five people were shot Sunday afternoon and one
of them was killed while dining outside at a pancake house in
Morgan Park.
As CBS 2s Steven Graves reported, the mass shooting happened
around 2 p.m., an hour before closing, at the Lumes Pancake
House at 11601 S. Western Ave.
The adults were shot as they ate outside under a tent the
restaurant had set up, according to the police and fire
departments. Earlier reports had said six people were shot, but
police later said it was five people.
Police said the person who was killed was a 31-year-old man and
was the target of the shooting. A white-colored sport-utility
vehicle pulled up and someone fired shots as he ate, police said.
Meanwhile, a 43-year-old woman suffered gunshots to the abdomen
and buttocks, and a 32-year-old man and woman were each shot in
the thigh. All were stabilized at Advocate Christ Medical Center
in Oak Lawn, police said.
A 30-year-old woman was also shot in the foot and was in good
condition at OSF Little Company of Mary Medical Center in
Evergreen Park, police said.
A waitress described chaos as shots rang out. She said a lot of
young people had just sat down to eat.
Everybody started coming running in, and they were in the back
in they were shooting. The guys came in the tent and started
shooting everybody in the tent, the waitress said. We had to
run inside and two people got shot.
