A 36-year-old man allegedly pulled a gun on a concealed carry permit holder in Chicago Saturday morning and was shot and critically wounded in the ensuing shootout.
The incident occurred around 1:40 a.m. Saturday “in the Englewood neighborhood’s 200-block of West 63rd Street,” ABC 7 reported.
The 36-year-old man got into an argument with a 49-year-old man and, at some point during the incident, allegedly pulled a gun and shot at the 49-year-old.
The 49-year-old, a concealed carry permit holder, pulled his legal firearm and returned fire, critically wounding the younger man.
CBS News noted the 36-year-old man was transported “to St. Bernard Hospital in critical condition.”
