2 women wounded in shooting outside Chicago hospital

CHICAGO (AP) - Chicago police say two women were wounded in a drive-by shooting as they gathered with a group outside a hospital to await news about a man shot hours earlier in a separate incident.

Police say the women, both 35, were shot Saturday night outside Mount Sinai Hospital. They were in fair and good condition at the Southwest Side hospital.

Amanda Morris told the Chicago Tribune her 25-year-old nephew was undergoing surgery inside the hospital when a car pulled up and the shooting started. Morris said one woman is the man's sister and the other is a cousin.
