A woman who was shot by Philadelphia Police early Sunday morning has died, the department said. She allegedly pointed a gun at officers, officials said.

Police responded to the area of North 10th Street and West Erie Avenue in Hunting Park just after 4 a.m. for reports that someone had a gun.

Sgt. Eric Gripp said that officers responding to the scene found a woman, identified by police Monday as 35-year-old Christina Miranda, holding a gun to her head. Police said Miranda was ordered to drop the weapon but ignored their commands. Gripp said police used a Taser on Miranda, but she was able to run across Erie Avenue, at which point she pointed the gun at the two officers.

The two 25th District officers fired at Miranda and hit her multiple times, police said. She dropped the gun when she fell to the ground and was taken to a nearby hospital in critical condition. Miranda was pronounced dead Sunday afternoon, police said.

According to Gripp, the gun recovered at the scene had an "obliterated" serial number and was loaded with one round in the chamber and 19 rounds in the magazine.

The officers have been placed on administrative duty. On Dec. 3, police identified the officers as 36-year-old Daniel Soler and 25-year-old Victor Tiu. Police initially said Soler had three years of service, but an update Wednesday said Soler has 17 years of service. Tiu has two. Their body-worn cameras were activated during the shooting, police said.

No one else was injured in the shooting.
