A woman was killed and two other people were injured during a shooting Sunday night on the North Side.

The 25-year-old woman was found inside a stopped vehicle on Cleveland Avenue just south of an apartment complex in the 2300 block of Belcher Drive, where Columbus police said the shootings took place around 7:45 p.m.

The woman was taken to OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital, where she was pronounced dead a short time later, police said.

The two other shooting victims are a 28-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman. The man was hospitalized in critical condition early Monday. The woman was treated and released.

Police are not releasing the victims� names pending notification of relatives.

Officers swarmed the apartment complex shortly after the shooting was reported, preventing some residents from getting back into their apartments for several hours.

Police said an argument escalated into gunfire at the apartment complex, and that two male shooters fled the scene.

The woman�s death is the city�s 30th homicide of the year.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the homicide unit at 614-645-4730 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-461-8477.
