There were no arrests and police were still working to determine the cause of the shooting, Ron Gaines said. A fire department official had earlier said seven people were shot.

Three of the injured were transported to area hospitals in serious to critical condition, including a 14-year old victim, said Larry Langford, a spokesman for the Chicago Fire Department.

None of the injuries were life-threatening, Ron Gaines said.

Victims were aged 14 to 52 and two were women, Ron Gaines said. Another victim was 16-years-old, according to the police spokesman.

Rescue workers found many of the victims still lying on the floor of the coin-machine laundromat, its windows shattered in the attack, Larry Langford said.
