PHILADELPHIA (AP) - A street shooting in Philadelphia has left a woman dead and a man critically wounded.

Authorities say the shooting happened around 4 a.m. Sunday.

A 23-year-old woman who had been shot in the face was found dead lying between two parked cars, while a 36-year-old man was found wounded a short distance away. He had been shot in the neck, chest and shoulder.



The man underwent emergency surgery at a hospital and remains there in critical condition. The names of the two victims have not been disclosed.

Authorities say two men were seen driving away from the shooting scene. They remained at large Monday.
