A Chinese businesswoman was shot dead in Chad on Thursday as she was going home in the capital N'Djamena, police told AFP.
The woman "was on her way home when she was cornered and shot not far from where she lives," a police spokesman said.
"She had definitely been followed," he added.
The victim's vehicle was stolen by her killers but police said the motive for the crime was not clear.
The woman was the owner of a wholesale outlet in N'Djamena where this type of crime is very rare.
Chad is a poverty-stricken landlocked country of nearly 15 million people.
