An early morning bike ride ended in death for a woman in Chester.
The victim, who police say was in her 20s, was found dead at 8th and Sproul Streets.
She was shot seven times while riding her bike around 2:25 a.m., according to police.
Her identity was withheld until her family is notified.
Investigators are looking into the possibility that the shooting had something to do an earlier home invasion on W 8th Street.
A victim told police that three men, 18 to 20 years old, broke into the home, questioned her at gunpoint and made off with two cell phones and $100.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Chester police.
