An adult woman was shot Wednesday afternoon near the 800 block of Northwest Sixth Street in Pompano Beach. Broward Sheriff's deputies are searching for the man she told investigators shot her. The Broward Sheriff's Office says her injuries are not life-threatening, as reported by CBS Miami.
CBS News reported that deputies and Pompano Beach Fire Rescue responded to the shooting call at about 3:49 p.m. Emergency crews found the woman with an apparent gunshot wound and took her to a nearby hospital. BSO has not identified the specific injuries.
Pompano Beach has contracted with the Broward Sheriff’s Office for local police services since 1999. City commissioners approved a new three-year police services agreement in July 2026, continuing BSO’s role in the city; the agreement also allows for optional renewals. The shooting investigation is therefore being handled under the city’s long-running arrangement with the sheriff’s office. BSO’s Pompano Beach district information and the city’s approved agreement document that relationship.
A suspect already gone
The woman told investigators an adult man shot her. He had fled before deputies arrived. CBS News said no additional information has been released, so the public account stops at that account from the victim: an adult man, gone from the scene.
Chopper 4 captured multiple police vehicles conducting an investigation at a home in the area, as noted by CBS Miami. The aerial view confirmed a response. It did not put a name, description or arrest on the record.
Where to send information
BSO asked anyone with information about the shooting or the suspect's whereabouts to contact Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477), according to CBS Miami. That tip line is the concrete next step while deputies continue the search.
Broward Crime Stoppers is a nonprofit clearinghouse that passes tips to law enforcement, not a police agency. It says callers are not identified or tracked and receive a case number for anonymous follow-up. Florida law separately classifies tipsters’ identities and materials connected to Crime Stoppers communications as protected information, with exceptions for official duties and criminal discovery. The organization’s tip procedures and Florida’s Crime Stoppers statute spell out those protections.
