three men died and at least 15 people, including six teenagers, were wounded in shootings across the city since Saturday afternoon, police said.

In the latest fatal shooting, a 27-year-old man died after being shot around 3:15 a.m. Sunday in the Old Town neighborhood downtown, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro.

The man was found inside a vehicle in the 400 block of West Evergreen Avenue with multiple gunshot wounds to the body, Alfaro said. The car he was in crashed into several parked cars in the area before coming to a stop.

The man was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead, Alfaro said.

A vehicle was seen leaving the scene, Alfaro said. Shortly after the incident, 18th District police officers stopped the attacker on the Eisenhower Expressway and took him into custody, police said.
