PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A woman was shot and killed Friday evening in Center City, and one person is in custody, according to police.

The shooting happened just before 6 p.m. at the corner of 12th and Chestnut streets, in front of a 7-Eleven. The incident, which unfolded in broad daylight along the busy corridor, was captured on video.

Casey Boultinghouse, who lives in the area, said he was heading out for a bike ride when he heard the gunfire.

"This is not the area that you typically hear things like this happening," Boultinghouse said. "That's when I just was outside my door and heard that and just started riding down Chestnut."

Police said the woman was pronounced dead at Jefferson Hospital about 90 minutes after the shooting. Her identity has not been released.
