Two people in two cars got shot near a school. Cops are trying to figure out who did it
Two people in separate cars were shot Wednesday afternoon not far from a Brownsville elementary school, police said.
After being shot, the victims drove away — to different locations — and called police for help.
According to police, a call came in just after 4 p.m. reporting a shooting at 3115 NW 52nd St. When officers arrived they found a woman, who told officers she had been shot about a block away.
“She drove herself to safety,” said Lee Cowart, a spokesman for Miami-Dade police.
The incident happened across the street from Lorah Park Elementary, 5160 NW 31st Ave.
As detectives began their investigation, they learned of a second victim who had driven himself to Northwest 36th Street and 22nd Avenue in Miami.
Both victims were taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, Cowart said.
Police say they are looking for three to four people, who left in a black SUV.
Anyone with information is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS (8477).
