At the scene shortly after 8 p.m., red and yellow tape surrounded about six houses in the middle of the block on Union Avenue between 73rd and 74th streets as a handful of police cars lined up north of the red tape along Union Avenue.
Several residents who declined to say anything to a reporter sat on their front porch looking on as police gathered on the street.
A man sitting on a porch next to the boarded-up home went inside after a police officer spoke to him.
No arrests have been made tied to the shooting and police continue to investigate.
