It started just after 11 p.m. on the 2400 block of South 62nd Street.
Officers were called to the scene for reports of a person with a gun, and upon arrival, police found three shooting victims.
The first victim, a 21-year-old man, was shot multiple times and was later pronounced dead.
The second victim, a 22-year-old man, was shot once and is in stable condition.
Finally, the third victim, another 22-year-old man, was shot multiple times and is listed in critical condition.
Investigators say the incident became violent after a car crash involving a suspect and the three victims.
"It appears parties from both vehicles had guns, at some point, one of those people began firing at the others," said Inspector D.F. Pace.
It is unclear what led to the crash.
Police say a male suspect is in custody for this incident. Anyone with information is asked to contact the police.
