CHICAGO — A 22-year-old man was shot Wednesday in West Humboldt Park.

At 2:22 p.m., the man was in the 4300 block of West Potomac Avenue when someone came up to him, talked to him and then took out a gun and fired shots, police said.

The man was hit in his right bicep and he took himself to West Suburban Hospital, where his condition was not available but he was listed as “stable,” police said.

No one was in custody. An investigation was ongoing.
