A 39-year-old woman was shot early Sunday while traveling on the Kennedy Expressway on the North Side.

The woman was shot once in the leg about 3:45 a.m. in the outbound lanes of I-90/94 near Fullerton when someone in a black BMW sedan began to fire into the passenger side of her vehicle, according to Illinois State Police.

She was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

All outbound lanes of the expressway were closed at Armitage for about three hours after the shooting, police said.
