Desperate dash to save dying beauty queen: Venezuelan woman, 22, dies hours after being gunned down on the street
Génesis Carmona shot in the head amid anti-government protests
The death of Carmona comes just over a month after a former Miss Venezuela, Monica Spear, was murdered together with her British husband in the street.
It also comes as Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez waits to learn if he will be charged for violence that has erupted during protests that have revitalized challenges to 15 years of socialist rule in the oil-rich nation.
Lopez was due to appear before a judge in a closed hearing a day after dramatically surrendering to authorities before thousands of cheering supporters Tuesday.
He was expected to learn what charges he would face for organizing mass demonstrations that have resulted in at least six deaths and more than 100 injuries over the past week.

Lors de ces manifestations, 5 personnes ont perdu la vie, parmi ces personnes, une jeune femme de 22 ans, mannequin et étudiante en sociologie, Genesis Carmona, une miss de beauté vénézuélienne.
La jeune femme de 22 ans est décédée mercredi 19 février de blessures, atteinte d’une balle à la tête lors d'une manifestation la veille à Valencia, une ville du centre du pays.
