A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: "Two ambulances attended and found a woman in a serious condition.
"She was given emergency treatment on scene before being taken on blue lights to hospital where she sadly died this morning."
Residents in the street have spoken of their shock, after emergency services descended on the scene.
One Burleigh Close resident said: "There were two police cars and two ambulances last night. I looked out of the window and saw the lights.
