A man showed up at a Chicago hospital with a gunshot wound after being shot on the Kennedy Expressway late Wednesday night, police said. 

Illinois State Police said the man was driving along just after 11 p.m. in the inbound lanes of I-90/94 near the Addison exit when he was shot just above his left hip. 

The man was able to drive himself to Swedish Covenant Hospital on the city’s North Side before he was transferred to Stroger Hospital, police said. Details on his condition were not immediately made available. 

State troopers temporarily closed inbound lanes of the expressway to search for shell casings from the shooting, but were unable to find any, police said. 

All inbound lanes had been reopened just after 1 a.m., police said.
