The man was in critical condition.anielle Moore-Willis didn't hesitate when she heard gunfire and shouts outside her Englewood home late Monday night. She quickly dressed and ran out to help.

There, under the yellow light of a street lamp, lay a man bleeding.
“It’s as if time stood still. It was only a couple people and they were talking to him, trying to keep him alert,” she said. “I knew he was bleeding from somewhere, I didn’t know where and I couldn’t figure it out. And he was breathing. . . I remember somebody talking to me and it’s just like a blur, it’s like it’s surreal. It’s surreal."
