Police were called to the 300 block of Olmstead Street at about 12:40 a.m. Saturday, and were told that a man was seen running to a waiting car after the shots were fired.

Insp. Marin said the case has been turned over to investigators with the guns and gangs unit.

The shooting is the latest in a series of such incidents across the city in recent weeks.

Last Sunday, police were called to the parking lot of Brookfield High School in the residential area of Brookfield and Hobson roads after receiving reports of a shooting a few minutes earlier. They found a 27-year-old man, Abdilah Faghi, who had been shot once in the chest. He survived.
