Police searched a plumbing van that appeared to be connected to the shooting. No one was reported in custody.



Keith Harris, 51, who lives near the block, said neither he nor other residents recognized the victim. Harris, a community activist, said a liquor store at the northeast corner of the block draws people onto the street who are not from the area.



"It's not uncommon to be out here on a summer night like tonight and see (visitors) flying down the street," Harris said. "Because it's been here for so long, I'm used to it."



For the most part, though, Harris described his block as close-knit and family-oriented, full of young children. Some of his neighbors have lived in the same home for decades, he said. "It's not a transient community."



Other than the two recent homicides, no other shootings have happened on the block since 2012, according to data the Tribune began keeping in the same year.



Quadruple shooting on West Side



Four people were in a West Side parking lot in the 2700 block of West Madison Street when someone in a sedan pulled up and began shooting about 5:35 p.m. Wednesday, according to police.



One man, whose age wasn't available, went in a private vehicle to Stroger Hospital after suffering a gunshot wound to the chest and was in serious condition, police said. Three other victims were taken by ambulance to Mount Sinai Hospital, where they all were in good condition. The wounded were a 54-year-old man shot in the left foot, a 37-year-old man shot in the buttocks and a 27-year-old woman shot in the left arm.



The shooting took place on the northeast corner of California Avenue and Madison. Shell casings were found in the street on Madison, causing police to cordon off both sides of the street and the street itself. Buses were rerouted.



Domestic shooting



Wednesday morning, a gunman wounded a woman in a domestic dispute and then killed himself in the Chatham neighborhood, police said. The two were found just before 10:15 a.m. in the 9100 block of South Cottage Grove Avenue on the Far South Side, police said.



The man, 27, had gotten into an argument with the woman, 38, and shot her several times, then apparently shot himself in the head, police said. The woman was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where she was in serious condition.
