The incident unfolded about 9:20 a.m. inside Eataly, 43 E. Ohio St., when the suspect got into an argument with two men that became physical, Chicago police said. The suspect pulled a gun and fired it during the struggle, according to police. The two men grabbed the gun and ran, while the suspect was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in good condition. He suffered minor injuries from the fight, Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford said.

He said they found the man who had been “battered” during an altercation.
