Investigators say the woman is not a suspect in the murder of Guled Ahmed, and they are not calling her a person of interest, she is simply someone they want to speak with.
Officers were called to Carruthers Avenue, north of Scott Street, at 3:42 a.m. Monday, for reports of shots being fired.
There, police found the body of 23-year-old Ahmed, lying in an alleyway behind a home.
