Two boys wounded in their homes by outside gunfire in separate South Side shootings

Two young children were wounded in their homes by shots fired from outside on the South Side Wednesday night.

A 3-year-old boy was sleeping when shots were fired in the 700 block of East 93rd Street just before 10 p.m., police said. 

A family member found the boy with a gunshot wound in his left elbow, and he was taken to Comer Children’s Hospital in good condition, police said. 

Around the same time, an 8-year-old boy was grazed on his leg in a home by shots fired in the 3600 block of South Rhodes Avenue, but he was not taken to a hospital, police said.

No arrests were reported in either shooting.
