A concealed carrier opened fire on four would-be carjackers in Chicago early Wednesday morning.
What are the details?
Chicago police said two victims — a 65-year-old man and a 40-year-old woman — were inside a car in the 100 block of North Kostner Avenue in the Garfield Park neighborhood on the city’s West Side when four armed males exited a silver SUV and approached them just before 5 a.m., WGN-TV reported.
The four males demanded the vehicle, but the male victim pulled out a handgun and opened fire at the four individuals, the station said, adding that his shots didn’t hit anyone.

Cops added to the station that one of the four would-be carjackers opened fire, too, hitting the female victim in the chest and grazing the male victim’s right calf.
The four males got back in the silver SUV and fled the scene, WGN reported.
Police told the station both victims were taken to West Suburban Medical Center, where they were listed in good condition.
Nobody is in custody, WGN said, adding that Area Four detectives are investigating.

“I didn’t know what happened to her, I just know my baby was shot, and my daughter picked me up and brought me here to the hospital to see about 20 bullet holes in the car where my daughter was shot in,” Janice Sims told WBBM.
