Four people were shot outside a Miami club early Saturday, leaving one dead, police said.

Miami police spokesman Rene Pimental said the exchange of gunfire, which took place at the El Nuevo Romance restaurant and nightclub at 3451 NW 36th St., injured three people and killed a fourth man just after 6 a.m. He said the argument happened in the club, but the group took the dispute and the shooting outside.

The three injured people were sent to Jackson Memorial Hospital, Pimental said. One man is in critical condition, and the other man and woman are in stable conditon. Another person broke his leg trying to climb a fence.

Police haven’t released information on a suspect or motive for the gunfire.

This isn’t the first time people were shot at the club. In 2014, two people were stabbed and a Miami-Dade police officer shot another person.

This is a breaking news bulletin and will be updated as more information is available.
