Deadly homecoming: Megan Boken, 23, was killed after she returned to Saint Louis University for an alumnae volleyball game Brutal: Ms Boken's attacker opened her driver's side door and fired multiple times at close range -- hitting her in the neck and chest After she graduated, Miss Boken moved back home to the quiet Chicago suburb of Wheaton, Illinois, where she worked for a financial adviser. She returned to St Louis, which has the second-highest murder rate in the nation, this weekend to play alongside her college teammates in a game against the current players.

Share this article Share KPLR-TV reported that Miss Boken was found in her Volkswagen about 2pm on Saturday in the parking lot of an apartment building where she lived when she attended St Louis University. She was rushed to the hospital with gunshot wounds to her chest and neck, but died on arrival. Witnesses told police they saw Miss Boken and the man arguing and then watched as he opened the door of her car and fire several shots at very close range. He than fled the scene. Why? Police have said the murder may have been a botched robbery, though witnesses indicated she might have known her attacker Witnesses described him as a thin black man in his mid-20s, about 5-foot-8 tall with short hair. Police are hoping a review of surveillance cameras in the area will give them a better idea of what happened inside the car. Miss Boken's family, meanwhile, has issued a statement saying she did not know her attacker. 'Megan was a wonderful and beautiful human being loved by everyone she met. The family and the community are devastated by this senseless tragedy,' they said in a statement to the St Louis Post-Dispatch. 'The initial reports that Megan knew her attacker are no longer believed to be true. The family asks that you keep Megan and them in your thoughts and prayers and respect their privacy at this time.'
