SAN DIEGO -- A 25-year-old University of San Diego graduate who had recently moved to Chicago for a new job was killed by a stray bullet last week.
According to WLS-TV, Aaren O’Connor was sitting in her car in the Heart of Chicago neighborhood Friday night speaking on the phone with her sister in San Diego when the line went dead. When her father called O’Connor back, he said she sounded confused.
"She was incoherent, didn't know where she was, and kept saying that her head hurts. Her head hurts," David O’Connor told ABC7. "I wish I could have known what was going on, so I could have told her that I love her one more time."
Aaren’s death was one of 17 Chicago homicides in the first eight days of February, ABC7 reports.

This is awful. Prayers up. And if she was sitting in her car and shot in the head, it doesn’t sound like a stray.

“Lower West Side is a community area on the West Side of Chicago, Illinois, United States.
It is three miles southwest of the Chicago Loop, and its main neighborhood is Pilsen.
The Heart of Chicago is a neighborhood in the southwest corner of the Lower West Side.”
It happened in the Pilsen area. And apparently the girl moved here to be with her boyfriend. It’s a very sad story.

My most sincere condolences to Aaren's family and friends.
May she rest in peace.
A tiny consolation...

And the smart successful ones get out of the ghetto and assimilate into the culture just like you mention.

Heart of Chicago is a very small area. My brother lives there. It’s quiet and largely populated by “old school” Italian families if you catch my drift. It is, however, completely surrounded by a couple of extremely dangerous neighborhoods.
The locals will not be pleased by this one bit. This is one murder I expect will be solved in fairly short order.
