Deputies said the incident occurred yesterday morning, in the vicinity of Southwest 168th Street and 197th Avenue. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office shared that the victim was subsequently transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital and was listed in stable condition, as NBC Miami reported.
In a closely related story, another source revealed that the same individual was airlifted to Jackson South Medical Center for treatment of his gunshot wound. Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office officials could not locate a crime scene by midday, and, the victim's identity has yet to be disclosed. A spokesperson for the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office conveyed the difficulty of the investigation, noting that no motive has been identified, and the suspect remains indeterminate, according to Local 10.
At present, details regarding the suspected shooter are sparse. Deputies have not released any description of the assumed perpetrator as they continue to examine the case. The lack of witnesses or immediate leads has compounded the challenge for the investigators, who are urging anyone with information to come forward.
The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office has not yet established a clear narrative of the events that transpired, and as such, remains vigilant in gathering evidence.
