(Peter Nickeas / Chicago Tribune / December 26, 2012)



























































A 32-year-old man died after someone shot him in the face, chest and arms in the Gage Park neighborhood late Wednesday.


He was shot in an alley east of California Avenue just south of 54th Street about 10 p.m., according to police.


Someone in a light-colored pickup shot him while he stood with a female, Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro said.





He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in critical condition, Alfaro said. The man's family gathered there after he was shot.


Eight detectives arrived at the scene and began their investigation early Thursday morning, their unmarked police cars crowding the narrow block of 54th Street between California and Fairfield avenues. 


A young woman wept next to red tape on the south side of the crime scene.


A spokesman for the Cook County medical examiner's office wasn't able to say whether they had been notified of the death.
