Customer killed at Wendy’s across the street from MDC North campus, police say
Update: On Monday, police identified the victim as Johnny Collins II.
A fight inside a Wendy’s ended in a deadly shooting Saturday night, Miami-Dade police say, and the shooter left before cops arrived.
A 28-year-old man died in the fast food restaurant, police said. His name wasn’t released as next of kin hadn’t been identified.
Around 6:20 p.m., police say, two customers began fighting with each other at the Wendy’s at 11925 NW 27th Pl., across the street from Miami Dade College’s North campus. An employee tried to step in but was punched in the face by one of the two men.
The other man pulled out a gun, and shot and killed the man with whom he’d been fighting.
The 20-year-old employee was treated for his injuries at the restaurant.
Police didn’t give a description of the suspect.
Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the location of the Wendy’s and the age of the person killed.
