A young woman was found shot to death early Monday morning in a car in the parking lot of a Whataburger near Interstate 45 in north Houston.

The woman was found about 12:40 a.m. at 109 Airtex near North Freeway, said Rhonda Pemberton of the Houston Police Department.

Pemberton said it appears the shooting occurred somewhere else and two young men drove the woman to the Whataburger to get help. They dashed inside the eatery and told workers to call 911.

When officers arrived, they saw the woman in the backseat of the car. She had been shot and died at the scene. She is believed to be in her late teens or early twenties. Her name has not been been released.

Pemberton said investigators so far have no suspects or motive in the case. They are interviewing the two men who were in the car with her.

More information will be reported when it is released.
