A 19-year-old woman was shot Sunday while she was inside a vehicle Sunday on Lake Shore Drive in the Loop.

About 1:20 p.m. she was inside a white Dodge Caliber traveling north on Lake Shore Drive at Jackson Boulevard, police said. While the car was stopped at Jackson, a second vehicle pulled up next to her.

After a conversation between people in the two vehicles, a passenger in the rear of the other vehicle fired at the Caliber, striking the woman in the head, police said.

The Caliber sped off and exited Lake Shore Drive in the 600 block of East Grand Avenue, near Navy Pier, police said.

Officers responded, and she was rushed to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in critical condition, police said.

Area Three detectives are investigating.
