Two days after a Hartford mother was gunned down in a drive-by shooting, police obtained an arrest warrant for the woman they believe is responsible.

Authorities were looking for Delitrice Medina, 33, in connection with the murder of Quiana Dismuke. The mother of two was killed while standing outside of her home at 151 Edgewood Street around 1:30 a.m. Sunday. Police said a car pulled up to the home and words were exchanged between someone in the car and the people standing outside Dismuke's house.

Shots were fired from inside the car, hitting Dismuke three times. She was rushed to St. Francis hospital where she was pronounced dead.

Police say Medina is 5 feet 4 inches tall with brown hair, brown eyes and a tattoo on her neck.
