Man who shot at two Broward deputies is still on the loose. Have you seen him?
The Broward Sheriff’s Office has released a composite sketch of the man they say shot at two deputies while they were on patrol in a Pembroke Park neighborhood.
Just before 3 a.m. Tuesday, the two deputies were in an unmarked cruiser in the 5100 block of Southwest 41st Street when someone standing in a parking lot pulled a gun from his waistband and fired several shots at their car, the sheriff’s office said.
The deputies were not injured.
Video taken by news stations also showed members of the SWAT team arriving to help police investigate the shots.
Deputies describe the man as being 20 to 26 years old, about 5 feet 8 inches tall to 5 feet 11 inches tall, and about 140 to 155 pounds with a slim build.
He was wearing red shorts and a red hoodie on the day of the shooting. Deputies say he should be considered armed and dangerous.
