Special Report: Heres how the feds trace guns when solving crimes

In a FOX 32 special report, Anthony Ponce looks at how the gun tracing process works and how it’s changing.

An armed robbery suspect, and a victim with a concealed carry license, are both in critical condition after exchanging gunfire Monday morning on Chicago's South Side.

Around 9:43 a.m., police say a 24-year-old man was walking toward his vehicle in the 7600 block of S. Carpenter St. when an unknown vehicle pulled up, an offender with a gun got out and then demanded the victim's property.

At this point, there was an exchange of gunfire. The victim was shot twice in the stomach, and the offender was struck in the head, the leg and back. They were both transported to University of Chicago Hospital in critical condition.

The investigation is ongoing.
