A Chicago police officer was shot and wounded Sunday in the city’s Englewood neighborhood on the city’s South Side.

The male officer and a male offender were each wounded in the area of 69th and Sangamon streets around 2:15 p.m., according to Larry Langford, a spokesman for the Chicago Fire Department.

Chicago police spokesman Tom Ahern confirmed that an officer had been shot and was being taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center in an unknown condition, but Langford said fire officials were being told the wound was “non-life-threatening.”
