Three people inside the car ran away. The man suffered scrapes to his arms, according to Chicago police.
The man said he was driving in the 3100 block of South DuSable Lake Shore Drive around 8:50 p.m. Wednesday “when he observed what appeared to be a white Honda HRV which was stolen from him,” police said in a statement.
The man followed the car and someone inside began shooting at him, police said. The Honda got on the Stevenson and was exiting at Damen Avenue when the man rear-ended the car, police said.
