Husband and father wanted for the bloody murder of his wife and daughter in their home

Miami Gardens resident Noel Chambers is wanted on charges of murder and attempted murder after his wife and a daughter were found dead Saturday night, Miami Gardens police said.

Another daughter, an adult, was in critical but stable condition.

Chambers, 57, “used an edge weapon,” in the attacks Miami Gardens Officer Carlos Austin said.

Miami Gardens police didn’t give the exact age of Chambers’ younger daughter, but Miami-Dade County Public Schools Superintendent Alberto Carvahlo put the child’s age at 10 in a Sunday morning Tweet.

According to Miami Gardens police, when they got to the Miami Gardens Apartments in the 600 block of Northwest 177th Street around 11 p.m., they found Chambers’ wife on an apartment back porch, his juvenile daughter inside the apartment and an adult daughter outside the apartment “suffering from multiple wounds.”

Chambers’ wife and younger daughter were pronounced dead at the scene.

Anyone who knows Chambers’ whereabouts can contact Miami Gardens police at 305-474-1710 or, to remain anonymous, Miami-Dade Crimestoppers at 305-471-TIPS (8477) or via the Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers website.
