One dead, two in critical condition after shooting near a funeral home, police say
A shooting in Brownsville left one man dead and two others taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital in critical condition, Miami-Dade police say.
According to police, a shots fired call at 4:51 p.m. Sunday drew officers to Northwest 53rd Street and 21st Avenue, where they found one man dead inside a car. Two other men lay shot in two different locations nearby.
Miami Herald news partner CBS4’s Ty Russell reported a nearby funeral home’s staff told the funeral director that one of the surviving gunshot victims made it to the door of the funeral home before collapsing — that ended the viewing going on inside.
“We were able to determine that they were all related,” said Miami-Dade Detective Alvaro Zabaleta. “We just don’t know what happened yet.”
