A 24-year-old woman was wounded in a Burnside neighborhood drive-by shooting on Saturday afternoon on the Far South Side.

The woman was shot at 1:36 p.m. while she was in the 1500 block of East 95th Street, Chicago Police said.

The woman told investigators that a vehicle drove by and someone inside it fired shots, police said. She was struck in her right leg and took herself to Trinity Hospital, where she was in good condition.

Police said the shooting may have been related to a road-rage incident.
