CHICAGO (AP) - Authorities have identified the bodies of three people found dead in an automobile parked in an alley in Chicago’s South Side Auburn-Gresham neighborhood.

Twenty-year-old Ryan Hamilton of Blue Island, 19-year-old Vogels Anderson Jr. and 18-year-old Devontae Watson, both of Chicago, were found dead Monday in a car owned by Hamilton.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office says all had been shot to death.

The bodies of the victims were discovered Monday after a resident called police to complain a car was blocking the alley. Authorities say one body was found on the front seat, another on the back seat and a third in the trunk of the auto.

Police say it isn’t clear when the three were shot.
