Chicago woman, 70, killed in suspected carjacking

In what appears to be a botched carjacking, the men begin shooting into Yvonne Ruzich’s car as she speeds away. The gunmen chased her down and shot her five more times before fleeing the scene.

Police are warning of a pair of carjackings reported in Northwest Side neighborhoods.

In each incident someone requested that a ride-share pick them up at a gas station, and once the driver arrived they pulled out a gun and stole the vehicle and personal items from the driver, Chicago police said.

The robberies happened about 12:15 a.m. Aug. 26 in the 4300 block of West Drummond Place, and about 5:30 a.m. Aug. 26 in the 2700 block of North Cicero Avenue, police said.

Officers believe a man and woman are involved.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Area Five detectives at 312-746-7394.
