A large police presence was seen in the Croissant Park neighborhood of Fort Lauderdale as officials investigate a reported shooting that left a woman hospitalized.
The shooting happened along the 900 block of Crescent Park Southwest 16th Street and Ninth Avenue early Monday morning.
It appears a party was being held at an Airbnb when some form of an altercation transpired and shots were fired.
A woman was struck by the gunfire and taken to the Broward Health. The extent of her injuries is unknown.
Neighbors said they heard a lot of commotion coming from the house before gunfire erupted.
“I’m going to shoot you. I’m going to shoot you’ So I’m like alright the cops are here, everything’s under control and then I would say about 10 minutes later I heard whoosh, whoosh,” said a man.
