A man was fatally wounded in a shooting Friday in Englewood on the South Side.

About 11:51 p.m., Reginald Watkins, 23, was sitting in a vehicle in the 6200 block of South Laflin Street and was involved in a “verbal altercation” with a group of people across the street, Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. Gunfire erupted, hitting him in the chest.

He ran to the corner of 62nd and Laflin where he collapsed, authorities said. He was taken to the Chicago Medical Center where he later died. He lived a few blocks from where he was shot.

An autopsy conducted by the medical examiner’s office Sunday said Watkins died of multiple gunshot wounds. His death was ruled a homicide.

No arrests have been reported. Area South detectives are investigating.
