Authorities say she left work Wednesday night and planned to run errands.

Detectives tell ABC13 whether the fiance was expecting her at the home that night is unclear since she only sometimes stayed there.

The woman was also holding car keys, appearing as if she was just about to get into a car.



However, police say this does not appear to be a robbery as all of her bags were still with her.

It's not clear how many times she was shot or where.

Police also don't know yet if she was shot Wednesday night or Thursday morning.



Detectives are still on the scene talking to neighbors.
