Breanna Patterson, 20, was charged with first-degree murder and home invasion with discharge of a firearm, according to police.
Patterson and Clark allegedly broke into a home in the 7300 block of South Paulina about 4:40 a.m., authorities said.
Englewood District officers responded to calls of a home invasion and were met by an “armed offender” who opened fire, police said. One or more of the officers shot back, police said.
The 29-year-old Smith was pronounced dead at the scene at 5:40 a.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He lived in the 2100 block of West 77th Street.
A weapon was recovered, police said. No officers were hurt.
Patterson, of the 7200 block of South Wolcott, was ordered held on a $1 million bond in court Monday, according to police and the Cook County sheriff’s office. She is next due to appear in court Feb. 22.
Independent Police Review Authority spokesman Larry Merritt confirmed the agency is investigating the shooting.
Rose previously lived at the home where the shooting happened.
Contacted by the Chicago Sun-Times about the shooting, Rose said: “What? What house? I only have a condo.’’
When it was cleared up, he said, “No, I haven’t heard about that.’’
