FLINT (WJRT) -

(11/12/12) -  A woman shot Sunday night in Flint has died.

Police have identified her as 21-year-old Mauricia Christensen. 

Police say she was one of three people inside a home in the 100 block of East Gracelawn. A man was also shot, but has since been released from the hospital, according to police.

Police tell ABC12, it appears this could have been an attempted home invasion.

The shooting happened just before 9 p.m. Sunday. Christensen passed away about two hours later.

Police say the suspects are two adult men.

Christensen is Flint's 61st homicide victim of 2012. 

It appears Flint is on track to surpass the record set in 2010. There were 66 homicides that year - the most the city had ever seen in one year.

There were 55 in 2011.
