11-year-old shot in drive-by not far from where 3 others were killed Sunday

An 11-year-old boy was shot in the upper chest Monday night in front of his Southwest Miami-Dade home after walking outside to speak with his brother.

Miami-Dade police said it was just past 10 p.m. when a dark SUV drove by a home at Southwest 173rd Street and 103rd Avenue, and someone from inside the vehicle opened fire.

Only Jamarie London, 11, was hit. He was taken by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. Police don’t have a motive or a suspect.

The shooting is only about 40 blocks from where a mother and her two children were shot and killed early Sunday morning.

Police believe Antwon Lamar Fair, 32, shot and killed Takeeya “Keke” Fulton, 39, Nuckeria “Keria” Harris, 19, and Corey “C.J.” Bishop Jr., 17, at their home at Southwest 203rd Terrace and 115th Avenue.

A fourth child was shot but is recovering. Police recovered the white Chevy Impala they believe Fair used as a getaway car, but haven’t yet caught up with Fair. They’ve said he may be armed and dangerous.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts is urged to call Miami-Dad Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
