A 20-year-old woman was shot Thursday night while riding in a vehicle in the Woodlawn neighborhood on the South Side.

At 9:43 p.m., she was siting in the passenger seat of a vehicle that was waiting at a traffic light in the 6300 block of South Cottage Grove when she heard gunfire and felt pain, Chicago Police said.

She was driven to University of Chicago Medical Center, where she was stabilized and treated for a gunshot wound to her left hand and a graze wound to her right wrist, police said.
