A man was shot to death after an argument broke out at a gathering Friday night in the East Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side.

The 36-year-old was inside a home about 10:35 p.m. in the 300 block of North Hamlin Avenue when he got into a fight with a person he knew, according to Chicago police. That person then pulled out a handgun and shot him in the chest, police said.

The man was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he died, police said. He was identified as Derick Burrnett by the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

No one was in custody.
