A 13-year-old boy and a 23-year-old woman were wounded in a shooting Tuesday night in the Little Village neighborhood on the Southwest Side.

The pair, who are cousins, were sitting in a parked vehicle about 9:45 p.m. in the 3700 block of West 28th Street when two people got out of a Toyota Corolla and started shooting, according to Chicago Police.

The boy suffered a gunshot wound to his hand, police said. He was taken to Stroger Hospital in good condition.

The woman - who the Chicago Tribune reported was pregnant - was shot in the head and taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where her condition was stabilized, police said. 

Area Central detectives were investigating the shooting.
