One person was killed and another was injured Sunday night in a shooting in Miami Gardens, authorities confirmed.
According to police, the victims were leaving a party and were followed to the area of Northwest 47th Avenue and 183rd Street where their car was shot at.
Police said three toddlers were sitting in the backseat of the vehicle during the shooting, but none of them were struck by bullets.
After the shooting, the victims ran into a nearby McDonald’s looking for help.
“Our victims were coming from a party and they were followed,” Miami Gardens police spokeswoman Diana Delgado said. “They are highly dangerous suspects if they are shooting at any car — any persons inside the car. This could be gang affiliated and it’s a targeted incident.”
Police confirmed that both victims who were shot were men, but their identities have not been released.
The surviving victim was hospitalized in critical condition.
A description of the shooter or shooters has not been released.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the Miami Gardens Police Department or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
