SOUTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, Fla. – A shooting that happened at a Shell gas station off Southwest 152nd Street and 122nd Avenue Saturday morning may be linked to another crime scene about 10 miles away.
Evidence markers that were placed next to bullet casings, a cell phone and a damaged umbrella at the Southwest Miami-Dade gas statuib were cleared away Saturday night.
