CHICAGO (WLS) -- Four men were shot at Hearts Night Club in the 1100-block of North Branch Street on Goose Island in Chicago.

Police said they responded to a call of shots fired just after 3:30 a.m. Wednesday. They found two men in their 30s shot multiple times in the parking lot of the club.

One man was shot in the leg and groin and the other man was also shot in the chest and back. They were both taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital and are listed in critical condition.

A third man in his 30s walked into Rush University Medical Center with a gunshot wound to the leg. He was transferred to Stroger Hospital of Cook County for treatment. His condition is unknown.

A fourth man walked into Stroger Hospital with a gunshot wound to the right arm, according to police. There is no word yet on that victim's condition.

A club patron said the shooting occurred at an after party for the "Under the Influence of Music" tour, which features high profile rappers like Wiz Kalifa, Young Jeezy and Tyga. A club employee said Young Jeezy attended the event following their concert in Tinley Park Tuesday night, but was not sure when he left.

This marks the second shooting at Hearts Night Club since April.

Area North detectives are investigating the shooting. They have not released a motive and no arrests have been made.

But there are several surveillance cameras stationed at the club, which may shed some light on what happened.
