The incident began around 9:30 a.m. when two men jumped from a red truck and began walking down the block, firing with AK-47s or Uzis as the truck followed them. They appeared to be aiming at a black sedan.
Around the same time as the shooting, a car veered into a westbound No. 75 CTA bus, pushing the bus into a light pole and injuring the driver and five passengers, said CTA spokeswoman Lambrini Lukidis. The injuries were not believed life-threatening, she said.
An employee who works at a nearby currency exchange said he was startled when he heard six to 10 gunshots fired just north of the store.
The bus veered left across the street, toppling a bench and a light pole before coming to a stop in a vacant lot.Eleven people were hurt -- two seriously.
