MIAMI – More than a dozen gunshots were fired early Friday morning at an apartment complex in Miami.
Local 10 News reporter Parker Branton was told at the scene that between 15 and 22 gunshots were fired at the complex at 2845 NW 22nd Ave. as residents were sleeping inside their homes.
"I was sleeping and my entire family woke up. Once the shooting happened, my entire family woke up, my dog woke up, and we just got on the floor, trying not to get hit by the bullets or the windows or anything," Brandon Escolona said.
Crime scene investigators were at the scene shortly after the shooting collecting evidence. Miami Fire Rescue crews brought out a ladder at one point so authorities could take pictures of bullet holes that were scattered throughout the building.
No injuries were reported, and it's unclear who was being targeted or whether the shooting was random.
Residents at the apartment complex said shootings in the area happen far too often, and now some may start searching for a new place to call home.
"I am thinking someone might die today because this is the fourth shooting that has happened since we moved here," Escolona said.
Anyone with further information is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
