BRIEF: Man, woman found shot to death in SUV on Kennedy Expressway

May 16--A man and woman were found shot to death inside an SUV early Sunday morning on the Kennedy Expressway on the Northwest Side, officials said.

The shooting happened around 4 a.m. in the northbound lanes of Interstate 90/94 near Armitage Avenue, according to Illinois State Police.

The two were identified as Eric Taylor, 43, of Waukegan and Camille Cooley, 36, officials said. Illinois State Police said Cooley lived in Waukegan, while the Cook County medical examiner's office said she lived in Chicago.

State police said a silver Chevrolet Tahoe was found stopped in the middle of the expressway, and a male driver and a female passenger were found unresponsive inside.

Both had gunshot wounds to the head and were pronounced dead at the scene, officials said. Autopsies are scheduled for Monday.

A black semi-automatic weapon was found inside the vehicle on the floor on the driver's side, according to a news release from state police. One of the car's passenger side windows was shattered.
