CHICAGO (SUN TIMES MEDIA WIRE) - A woman was shot in the head while fleeing what was believed to be an attempted robbery early Wednesday in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side.
Jasmyne Shoals, 31, was driving with two passengers when they stopped to talk to a male they didn’t know. Worried that they were about to be robbed, the woman drove away.
