CHICAGO (WLS) -- Chicago police are investigating after one man was killed and another wounded when they were shot inside a barber shop in the Englewood neighborhood Thursday afternoon.

Investigators said two men were inside Powell's Barber Shop around 3:11 p.m. in the 1100-block of W. 63rd St. when someone walked up and fired shots into the business, then fled.

Police said a 38-year-old man who was shot in the shoulder was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he later died.

A 36-year-old man was shot in the legs and taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center, authorities said. No information was immediately available on his condition.

No one is in custody.

The barbershop was one of the filming locations for Spike Lee's 2015 film "Chi-raq."
