The CCL holder fired back as the male suspect sped away, police said.
The woman sustained a gunshot wound to the face and arm. First responders rushed her to Roseland hospital where she died, CPD said. The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office identified her as Katrina J. Brown.
The CCL holder was not hit.
Street Pastor Donovan Price responded to the scene. He said he hopes this is not a sign of what's to come this weekend.
"Hopefully this won't be the start of a violent Labor Day weekend," Donovan said. "People are out trying to enjoy themselves and unfortunately gunshots erupted and a young lady is dead... We'll stay vigilant. We'll stay prayerful."
