A 15-year-old girl who performed at President Obama's inauguration
last week was shot dead Tuesday while hanging out with friends after
school in bullet-scarred Chicago.
Hadiya Pendleton -- described by
family as a “walking angel” -- was standing under a canopy in Vivian
Gordon Harsh Park when a gunman ran down an alley, opened fire and fled
in a white car, police said.
Pendleton was shot in the back but
managed to run about a block before she collapsed, officer Laura Kubiak
said. She died at the hospital.
