CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) — Chicago police said three people have died after a hit-and-run accident in South Shore Sunday morning.

Police said four men were hit near 70th Street and Jeffery Boulevard by a car heading southbound.

It happened around 5 a.m., authorities said. Videos online show a group of men fighting in the street when a car — that does not appear to slow down — hits the men and sends them flying.

Chicago police would not comment on the graphic videos, only to say they are investigating.

Authorities said three of the pedestrians were pronounced dead at the University of Chicago Medical Center.

The fourth was transported to Stroger Hospital in an unknown condition.

No one is in custody, and police are investigating.
