A 22-year-old man was shot early Thursday morning during a fight in a Naperville apartment complex parking lot, Naperville police Cmdr. Jason Arres said.

The incident occurred at about 2 a.m. in the 1400 block of Fairway Drive, when the victim and five of his friends were returning from an evening out and got into a “verbal dispute” with a man who was driving through the complex, Arres said.

The suspect, described as Hispanic and in his 20s, pulled out a gun and fired multiple shots before fleeing in a white SUV, he said.

The shooting victim, a West Chicago resident, was hit in the shoulder. He has been admitted to Edward Hospital in Naperville, Arres said.

It’s not yet known how many shots were fired or what type of gun was used, he said. Police do not believe the incident was gang related.

At least one of the five people involved in the lives in the apartment complex, Arres said. None of them knew the suspect prior to the incident, he said.

Anyone who may have witnessed the shooting or has information about it is asked to call the investigations division at 630-420-6666.
