The baby was nearly full term when he was delivered shortly after Monday's shooting in the Back of the Yards neighborhood.
The newborn's grandfather, Tyler Thomas, told the Chicago Sun-Times (http://bit.ly/2cBWJWz ) Tuesday evening that "the baby is doing good."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A spokeswoman for Stroger Hospital says the mother and father, 23-year-old Crystal Myers and 24-year-old Albert Moore, were listed in critical condition Tuesday night. Moore was shot in the neck.
The couple was on a relative's porch when a gunman opened fire and fled.
Police say the woman was not the intended target. No arrests have been announced.
