A woman suffered a graze wound in a shooting early Sunday on the Dan Ryan Expressway on the South Side.

A male and a 26-year-old woman were driving on northbound I-94 near 87th Street at 12:25 a.m. when shots were fired at their vehicle by someone in another vehicle, according to Illinois State Police.

The woman suffered a graze wound to the head, and the male passenger was not injured, police said. They drove to St. Bernard Hospital.

All traffic was diverted off at 87th Street for the investigation until 2:55 a.m., police said.

Why did Harry Caray always say ‘Holy Cow?’ It could be linked to a 1930s flying bovine. No bull!
In 1930, a 15-year-old Harry Caray was living in St. Louis when the city hosted an aircraft exhibition honoring aviator Charles Lindbergh. “The ‘first ever’ cow to fly in an airplane was introduced at the exhibition,” said Grant DePorter, Harry Caray restaurants manager. “She became the most famous cow in the world at the time and is still listed among the most famous bovines along with Mrs. O’Leary’s cow and ‘Elsie the cow.’”
