Joliet, IL – A Joliet man was killed and two others were injured late Saturday night when gunfire erupted outside a home on Krakar Avenue.

According to the Joliet Police Department, officers responded to the residence at 11:07 p.m. and discovered a 23-year-old man unresponsive with a fatal gunshot wound to the head. A 27-year-old man suffered a non-life-threatening graze wound to the head, and a 20-year-old man, who sustained four gunshot wounds, was transported to Silver Cross Hospital in stable condition.
