A 30-year-old woman was shot dead outside a bar in Sheffield city centre early Monday morning. According to multiple reports, South Yorkshire police launched a murder investigation after the incident at about 2:45 AM BST near One Four One on West Street.

The victim suffered serious injuries and was treated at the scene before being taken to hospital, where she later died. Three people were arrested in connection with the shooting: two men aged 30 from Sheffield and Stockport respectively, and a 32-year-old woman also detained near Stockport. All three remain in police custody as the investigation continues.

Assistant Chief Constable Colin McFarlane expressed condolences to the victim's family and urged anyone with information about the shooting to come forward. 'This is a devastating incident which has resulted in the death of a young woman while on a night out during the bank holiday weekend,' he stated, emphasizing that gun crime causes unbearable tragedy.

West Street between Mappin Street and Westfield Terrace remains closed along with Eldon Street, Westhill Lane, and part of Orange Street. Police have advised drivers to avoid the area as detectives continue their investigation. Public transport routes through the city centre have also been impacted due to the police cordon.
