NORTH LAUDERDALE, Fla. — A 62-year-old man has died after he was shot in the parking lot of a Walmart in North Lauderdale on Tuesday, authorities announced Wednesday.
The man was identified by the Broward Sheriff’s Office as Bart Diguglielmo, of Lauderhill.
According to BSO, the shooting was reported just before 12:30 p.m. Tuesday in the parking lot of the Walmart, located at 7900 W. McNab Road.
Deputies and North Lauderdale Fire Rescue medics responded to the scene and found Diguglielmo suffering from a gunshot wound, authorities said.
Deputies said paramedics transported Diguglielmo to Broward Health Medical Center, where he died.
Local 10 exclusively obtained video showing the moments that the fatal shooting occurred.
According to BSO, Diguglielmo and a woman had gotten into an argument over a parking space prior to the shooting.
Deputies said the woman remained at the scene after the shooting and claimed she shot Diguglielmo in self-defense.
Detectives confirmed that the woman was detained for questioning and is cooperating in the investigation.
The victim’s daughter, who asked to be identified only as Amanda, was in tears as she described her father during a Zoom interview with Local 10 News, calling him a “good man” who previously served in the military.
She told Local 10’s Rosh Lowe that nobody “deserves to lose their life over a parking spot.”
Amanda told Lowe that she was “hesitant to do the interview,” but said she wanted her dad “to be remembered for who he was and not who the media is portraying him to be.”
“I heard one news site say it was over a parking spot,” Amanda said. “Another says it was because my dad was making some type of advance towards the woman, which I will completely debunk because my dad is not that person. He’s not perfect, but not someone that would do this to this extreme.”
Amanda said she had been estranged from her dad for many years, but they had recently been working on repairing their relationship.
Detectives said upon the completion of the investigation, the case will be presented to the Broward County State Attorney’s Office to determine whether criminal charges will be filed against the woman who shot Diguglielmo.
The woman’s identity has not been released.
A BSO spokesperson told Local 10 News that the agency has not received any updates and “the case will be presented to the Broward County State Attorney’s Office to determine if criminal charges will be filed.”
