Margate police are digging into a triple shooting that left several people hurt Sunday, with officials saying that, thankfully, none of the injuries appear to be life threatening. Authorities said three to four people were involved, but they have not yet shared where the gunfire broke out or who they believe might be responsible. Detectives are still working to sort out what exactly led up to the violence.
What officials are saying so far
According to CBS News Miami, officials reported that three to four people were involved in the shooting and that none of the victims suffered life-threatening injuries. The brief video report did not give an exact address or clarify which law enforcement agency is leading the investigation, and few other details were made public.
Fresh case, familiar concern in Broward
Earlier this year, a deadly triple shooting at a Miramar gas station left a 19-year-old dead and two others wounded, as NBC6 South Florida reported. That case, and the attention it drew from neighbors and investigators, serves as a reminder of how quickly a confrontation can turn deadly in nearby communities.
How to help investigators
At the time of the initial report, police had not released any suspect descriptions or a possible motive. Anyone with information or video is asked to contact Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-8477, according to the tipline's website.
No city statement was available when this story was published. Hoodline will continue to monitor the investigation and update this post when officials release more information.
