Two men were shot and killed this morning on the city's Near West Side, police said.
Killed were Estaban Alvarez, 27, of the 2200 block of South Leavitt Street and Alejandro Munoz, 26, of 2300 block of South Oakley Avenue, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
Both men were wounded as they sat on a set of steps outside of Alvarez's home on South Leavitt in the Heart of Chicago neighborhood at about 12:45 a.m., police said.
Munoz, who was shot in the head, was dead at the scene, while Alvarez, who was shot in the lower abdomen, was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, said police and a medical examiner's spokeswoman.
Early reports indicated both victims were wounded by two gunmen wearing dark clothing. They fled the scene in an older model white SUV, police said.
No arrests have been made and police didn't give a motive.
At least two dozen people were wounded across the city on a busy NATO summit weekend, including two young boys who were killed in separate shootings
