The SUV rolled forward after the shooting, and crashed into a traffic light pole across the street.
The man was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The rear driver's side window of the SUV was shattered, and the driver's side was riddled with bullet holes, but no other injuries were reported.
No one was in custody Monday morning.
