Police are investigating after they say a gunman opened fire in a Miami Gardens neighborhood over the holiday weekend.
Local 10 News obtained video from Only in Dade of a person wielding what appears to be an assault rifle and sprinting through a driveway while firing several rounds.
The culprit was seen pausing for some time as gunfire was exchanged before swiftly departing in a vehicle.
The latest incident is currently under investigation by detectives at the Miami Gardens Police Department.
A Local 10 News crew was in the neighborhood where homes and vehicles bear the brunt of the violence, which was evident in the bullet-riddled facades and vehicles left perforated.
Carolina Hunter said she worried about the safety of her grandchildren in Miami Gardens. Detectives were investigating a Memorial Day weekend shooting steps away from her home.
Hunter said her neighborhood is “very nice and pleasant,” but a shooting on Saturday evening in the area of Northwest 202 Terrace and 33 Avenue filled it with fear.
“It was a little scary,” Hunter said. “We are concerned.”
Residents said dozens of bullets were “flying.” There were holes all over the white walls and glass of the house that was the target. There were holes in a parked black Honda with a disabled parking permit.
Authorities said no one was injured and a motive remains unclear at this time.
Detectives asked anyone with information about this or other cases to call Miami-Dade County Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
