A woman died in The Bronx early Sunday morning after being shot in the back of the head, and police were investigating the circumstances.
Paramedics pronounced the woman dead in front of a building on 214th Street in the Williamsbridge section around 2:30 in the morning, the NYPD said.
She is believed to have been in her 20s, the police added.
It was the second notable murder of a young woman in the borough in less than a week.
On Monday, a young woman was gunned down in a Bronx apartment building when she went to protect a friend who was in some sort of trouble, friends and law enforcement sources said.
Aaliyah Alder, 21, was found dead with a single gunshot wound to her head on the eighth floor of the Forest Houses building on Tinton Avenue in Morrisania, police said.
There was no immediate suggestion that the two killings were in any way related, though.
