MIAM GARDENS, Fla. — Authorities in South Florida say they’re looking for a man who shot and wounded three people and fled with a 15-year-old girl.
The Miami Herald reports that it happened Friday morning in a Miami Gardens neighbourhood.
Police say a confrontation occurred between the shooter and the teenage girl’s mother, aunt and uncle outside an abandoned home. Investigators believe the suspect had been sleeping in an SUV parked in the driveway. One of the victims managed to take a photo of the suspect before being shot, and police have shared it on social media.
Police haven’t named the suspect. It wasn’t clear whether he knew the victims before the shooting or whether the girl was being held against her will.
