Two teenagers were killed and an adult was wounded in a shooting on Wednesday morning in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago.

Police said, shortly before 8 a.m., three people were inside an apartment building in the 8100 block of South Marshfield Avenue when they were shot.

A law enforcement source said a 16-year-old was found outside on a porch. Another teenager was found inside a stairwell. Both died from multiple gunshot wounds to their heads and necks, according to a source.

A third victim – a 21-year-old man – was shot in the right arm and was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in good condition.

Police did not release details on the circumstances leading up to the shooting. 

It was an emotional morning for several family members after finding out both teens died.

Neighbors said the deadly shooting happened in a neighborhood that's plagued with violence.

One neighbor, who didn't want to be on camera, said she heard at least four gunshots. She said, since shootings are a familiar sound in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood, she stayed in bed and didn't move.

Pastor Donovan Price described how devastating the deadly shooting is for many family members.

"It's tragic, especially with a child. However, as long as there are people willing to perpetrate evil, as I've said before, and there are guns and anger and the atmosphere of the country, the world, we're going to see violence," he said.

A neighbor said the building and block where the shooting happened have been a hotspot for crimes.

In February, a man entered the same building through a window and attacked an 82-year-old woman, knocking her to the ground and sexually assaulting her.

"Well, there have been several instances of police being called in this area, in this building in particular," Price said.
