Sources said Lil Reese, along with a 20-year-old man and a 27-year-old man, was hit during the shooting. Authorities said that two of the men are in critical condition at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. They described the third victim as being in serious condition and is currently at Stroger Hospital. It's unclear what condition Reese is in right now.
