CHICAGO (WLS) -- A 40-year-old Chicago man shot and gravely wounded Sunday night outside a South Side Red Line station has died, Chicago police said Wednesday morning.

Anthony Binion died Tuesday after being shot, the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office and CPD said.

Binion got into an argument with another man shortly after 8:30 p.m. along 69th Street in Englewood, according to CPD. That's when the man pulled out a firearm and shot him, police said.

Binion suffered a gunshot wound to the thigh and was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center in grave condition.
