Detectives investigate Memorial Day weekend shooting

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – Carolina Hunter said she worried about the safety of her grandchildren in Miami Gardens. Detectives were investigating a Memorial Day weekend shooting steps away from her home.

Hunter said her neighborhood is “very nice and pleasant,” but a shooting on Saturday evening in the area of Northwest 202 Terrace and 33 Avenue filled it with fear.

“It was a little scary,” Hunter said. “We are concerned.”

Residents said dozens of bullets were “flying.” There were holes all over the white walls and glass of the house that was the target. There were holes in a parked black Honda with a disabled parking permit.

No one was injured. Detectives asked anyone with information about this or other cases to call Miami-Dade County Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
