Chicago police said the adult victim is a documented gang member and was the target of the shooting.
"It's sad because children aren't allowed to be children. They're not allowed to walk with their parents, they're not allowed to enjoy their life. You know, they're in the middle of what's going on out here in this world. These innocent babies have nothing to do with it," said Veronica Shirley, neighbor.
Police are still searching for the shooter and reviewing security camera video from the neighborhood. If you have any information about the shooting, call Chicago police.
