One teenager was killed, and two others were injured in a Monday shooting near Charles Hadley Park in Liberty City, the Miami Police Department said.
Miami police officers responded around 6:45 p.m. to a ShotSpotter alert of gunshots near Northwest 13th Avenue and 51st Street.
Officers found 19-year-old Qumourie Gay suffering from gunshot wounds, police said. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue personnel gave aid and took Gay to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he died.
In connection with that shooting, officers found an 18-year-old man with a gunshot wound to a leg at Northwest 12th Avenue and 50th Street, police said. Then, police received reports of another 18-year-old man “who had also sustained a leg injury from the gunfire, left the scene and was at a different location.”
Police did not identify either of the injured men, who were both taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital.
There were no suspects in custody as of 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Officer Michael Vega, a department spokesman, said. It is still undetermined whether there was one shooter or multiple shooters.
