A Beach Park man was wounded early Wednesday in what police said appears to be a targeted shooting.
The man was inside his parked vehicle at his home in the 38400 block of North Sheridan Road, warming it up as he prepared to drive to work, when someone opened fire on him at about 5:20 a.m.
The man, 46, was brought to Vista East Medical Center in Waukegan and then flown to a Level 1 trauma center, according to the Lake County Sheriff’s Office.
Police said a relative drove the wounded man to the hospital. The man appears to have been targeted, based on investigative leads, authorities said.
