Police had pulled over a speeding car on 57th and Springfield streets when they found an unresponsive man in the back seat.
The 20-year-old was suffering from a gunshot wound to the shoulder.
As officers transferred the victim to their patrol car, police say the driver and passenger jumped back into the car and sped off, leaving the victim behind.
