A woman was killed and two men were injured in a shooting Saturday night in the Roseland neighborhood on the Far South Side.

The group was getting out of a car about 9 p.m. in the 11400 block of South Stewart when they heard gunfire and realized they’d been hit, according to Chicago Police.

They drove to Roseland Community Hospital, where 23-year-old Tiara M. Parks was pronounced dead at 9:14 p.m. with a gunshot wound to the head, according to police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. She lived in the 9200 block of South Bishop.

A 24-year-old man was shot in the lower back and a 27-year-old man in the left leg. Both of their conditions were stabilized, police said.
