Drive-by shooting in north Corpus Christi leaves 1 woman dead, 1 woman injured

One 44-year-old woman is dead, and another 60-year-old woman is in serious condition after a drive-by shooting in north Corpus Christi Friday night.

Corpus Christi Police say a gunman opened fire from inside a passing vehicle around 9:30 p.m. on Friday night on the 5800 block of Skylark Drive.

"Officers arrived and located two shooting victims. A 44-year-old female and a 60-year-old female. Both victims were transported by medics to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries. The 44-year-old victim has since succumbed to her injuries," said CCPD Senior Officer Jennifer Collier.

Investigators determined that a black passenger car with black rims, possibly a Mazda, "drove by the residence and began shooting into the residence, where the two women were struck by the gunfire."

Officials say the dark-colored vehicle fled the scene. Police have not arrested anyone in Friday night's drive-by shooting.
