Excerpts from the ChicagoTribune.com:

Someone fired a gun into an ambulance while paramedics were in the vehicle treating a patient in the Englewood neighborhood but no one was hit, according to police and fire officials.

Paramedics were sent to the 5600 block of South Bishop Street around 5:35 p.m. Sunday for a traffic crash. But when they got there, they found an ambulance with its driver’s side front window shattered, said Will Knight, a spokesman for the Chicago Fire Department. “A large caliber slug was noted on the floor inside the cab,’’ Knight said in an email.

The shooting happened as two paramedics in the ambulance were treating a person suffering from shortness of breath, Knight said.

No one was reported in custody.
