A gunman opened fire on a bartender outside a Little Village bar just as a police car was pulling up, and he was arrested after a two-block chase, authorities said.
The 29-year-old man was in critical condition at Mount Sinai Hospital with wounds to his abdomen and groin. He was shot at the corner of 24th Street and Washtenaw Avenue about 11:40 p.m. Wednesday.
Ogden District officers patrolling Washtenaw Avenue heard the gunfire and saw the man running from the scene toward a car waiting behind the bar, police said.
They chased the gunman down an alley and through yards and caught him near 23rd and Rockwell streets. Police found a gun and its magazine along the chase route, authorities said.
