Police Involved Shooting


(Miami-Dade County, FL) -- 

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is investigating a police shooting that involved Miami-Dade Police Department detectives.

According to investigators, Robbery Intervention Detail detectives observed a male riding a scooter, and attempted to conduct a traffic stop in the area of NW 66 Street and 22 Avenue.  As detectives activated their emergency equipment to effect the stop, the male subject opened fire at the officers with a handgun, and an exchange of gunfire ensued between the officers and the subject.  The subject then fled on foot.

Detectives in the area of NW 54 Street and 22 Avenue located a injured female inside of a red vehicle, suffering from an apparent gunshot wound.  The investigation revealed that the red vehicle, occupied by the female, was at the original shooting scene.  She was transported to Ryder Trauma Center in stable condition.  A firearm has been recovered at the shooting scene, and one male subject is detained while the investigation continues.
