A woman died Saturday afternoon after having been shot two days earlier while sitting in a vehicle parked next to Lake Merritt.
The 22-year-old woman, whose name has not been released, died at 1:02 p.m. Saturday, authorities said.
The woman was shot by someone outside of her vehicle at 12:50 a.m. Thursday in the 1400 block of Lakeshore Avenue, Oakland police said. She was parked on the west side of the street facing the lake, in a cul-de-sac lined by apartments.
The shooting remains under investigation, and no arrests have been made.
