3 shot outside bar north of Chicago early Christmas Day

LAKE BLUFF, Ill. (AP) - Authorities say three people have been shot outside a bar-and-grill north of Chicago.

A Lake County Sheriff's Office statement says the shooting occurred at around 1:30 a.m. on Christmas Day. It happened in the parking lot of Nardo's BBQ Bar & Grill in an unincorporated area near Lake Bluff.

Friday's statement says two males and one female were treated at local hospitals. All three are expected to survive.

A preliminary investigation indicates an argument started inside before spilling outside.

Other details weren't immediately available, including whether the shots were fired by one or several weapons. The sheriff's office says the investigation is ongoing.
