A 19-year-old woman was shot on a porch early Saturday in an Austin neighborhood drive-by attack on the West Side.

She was standing on the porch about 12:50 a.m. when a silver-colored car drove by in the 5000 block of West Division and someone inside fired at her, according to Chicago Police.

She was shot twice in the left leg and taken to Stroger Hospital, police said. Her condition was stabilized.
