Police said the man, who was driving west on the Kennedy near Beverly Road, milepost 57.5, was shot by someone in an unknown vehicle also traveling west about 4:11 a.m. He was struck multiple times and taken to an area hospital by ambulance. His passenger, a 27-year-old man from Carpentersville, was uninjured.

A 27-year-old woman was in critical condition at Mount Sinai Hospital with a gunshot wound to her pelvis. Three men in their 20s and 30s were also taken to Mount Sinai, where their conditions were stabilized. A woman, 30, was at Mount Sinai with a graze wound in good condition, and another woman, 33, was at Mount Sinai in fair condition after suffering a gunshot to her shoulder.

Kelly’s accusers, in aggregate, said from the witness stand that he could be kind and considerate at first, but then became abusive and controlling over the course of their relationships, imposing strict “rules” and violently punishing girlfriends who stepped out of line. He coerced them into having sex with him and others, and stage-managed each encounter, often while recording with a camera or iPad, they said.
