CHICAGO — Chicago police shot and wounded a man Tuesday morning after responding to the report of a stabbing on the Northwest Side.
The shooting happened at 6:19 a.m. in the 2600 block of North Oak Park Avenue after officers answered a call of a person with a knife, police said. Officers found a woman with a knife wound, confronted the suspect at the scene and, at some point, opened fire.
"Shots were fired, an adult male was hit and is being treated at a local hospital," said Mark Payne, spokesman for the Independent Police Review Authority, the agency charged with investigating police-involved shootings. The circumstances of the shooting were not available.
The man, whose condition and identity were not released, was taken to Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, according to police. The woman was being treated for a stab wound at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center. Her condition also was not released.
Police said the stabbing appeared to be domestic in nature.
