MIRAMAR, FLA. (WSVN) – A woman was taken to the hospital after the man she had been dating opened fire — all while she was robbing him at his apartment in Miramar, police said.
Miramar Police units responded to a call of a robbery at the Miramar Lakes apartments along North Preserve Way, off Pembroke Road, at around 2:15 a.m. on Friday.
The man who called 911 said he was being robbed, investigators said.
Officers arrived to find the injured victim and the caller inside the apartment. Detectives said the man had shot the woman.
“She was transported; her condition is unknown at this time,” said Miramar Police spokesperson J M.
Prior to this incident, the man told detectives he and the woman had been casually seeing each other. He is currently being questioned.
“The gentleman, he is fully cooperating with the police,” said M.
Residents of the complex were shocked to hear about the violent chain of events
“This is unreal, like, very surprising, very, very surprising,” said R M.
“Honestly, I’m still in shock,” said K B.
7News cameras captured a crime scene van and several police cruisers, as well as crime scene tape cordoning off a portion of the complex.
A crime scene investigator with plastic over her shoes was seen walking into the apartment unit, and other investigators were seen heading toward the back of the complex.
Residents of the complex said seeing the heavy police presence is unsettling.
“Seeing everything blocked off, it’s like, what in the world? Like, I’m not used to seeing this type of activity,” said M.
“I live here with my daughter, so that is scary,” said B.
Detectives have not provided any further details about the circumstances surrounding this possible robbery. It’s unclear what charges, if any, the man could be facing, as the investigation continues.
