Someone pulled up alongside the 26-year-old and fired shots at her about 11:10 p.m. at Chicago and Hamlin avenues, Chicago police said.

The woman was struck twice in the head and taken to Stroger Hospital, where she died, police said.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office has not released details about her death.

She was one of six people killed in weekend gun violence throughout Chicago.
