During the fight, a 40-year-old man pulled out a gun and shot a 28-year-old man and a 34-year-old woman.
The 28-year-old man fired back and shot the 40-year-old man, wounding him in the arm, police said.
The younger man and the woman were rushed to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where they were both pronounced dead, police said.
The older man was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where he was reported in good condition, police said.
There was no word on any charges Sunday evening.
