A young woman shot dead near a supermarket was not the intended target, police have said.
Aya Hachem was found with fatal injuries in King Street in Blackburn, close to Lidl, on Sunday.
The 19-year-old law student, described as "truly remarkable", was going to the shop at about 15:00 BST when she was shot from a passing car, police said.
A Toyota Avensis, believed to have been used in the killing, was later found abandoned on Wellington Road.
A number of occupants were in the car, which has the registration number SV53 UBP, as it passed Ms Hachem, police said.
Detectives have urged "anyone with information to search their consciences and come forward".
"There is no evidence to suggest Aya was the intended target of this attack and every indication is that she was an innocent passerby," the force said.
