Unidentified Suspects and Ongoing Investigation

As of now, police have no information regarding the identity of the suspect or suspects involved in the shooting. Witnesses at the scene have provided limited information, but the investigation is still ongoing, and authorities are working to gather more details. The lack of immediate suspects highlights the challenges law enforcement often faces in responding to sudden violent incidents in residential areas. The Miami-Dade Police Department is urging anyone with information related to the shooting to come forward, as the search for the perpetrator(s) continues. At this time, it is unclear what led to the shooting or if it was a targeted attack or a random act of violence.

Witness Accounts: Shots Fired by Masked Individuals

According to witnesses who spoke to NBC6, the shooting took place near a house located behind a gas station in the area. They reported seeing multiple individuals dressed entirely in black and wearing ski masks. These masked individuals appeared to be shooting at each other while driving down Old Cutler and Franjo roads. This chaotic scene unfolded, leaving residents and passersby concerned for their safety. A gas station clerk working nearby recalled hearing two distinct rounds of gunfire. The sudden bursts of gunshots startled those in the vicinity and sent people into a panic. Although the exact number of shots fired remains unclear, the presence of masked individuals in multiple vehicles suggests a possible shootout between rival parties.

Community Concerns and Appeal for Information

This incident has heightened concerns in the Cutler Bay community, particularly with suspects still at large.
