NORTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - One person has died and four others were injured following a shooting outside of a bar in Northwest Miami-Dade.
The shooting happened at the Chicagoan Bar, located at 10702 NW 7th Ave., at around midnight on Tuesday.
“There’s a lot of things, but nothing like this,” said Clifton Samuels.
Clifton Samuels has owned Cliffs restaurant and catering for over 35 years, which is next to the Chicagoan Bar and lounge, which was the scene of a violent shooting that left one person dead along with four individuals injured.
The deceased individual was first reportedly escorted out of the bar after he assaulted his female companion.
He then drove away, returned to the bar, stopped in the middle of the street and began firing several rounds at the bar’s security, according to police.
Another security guard came from inside the bar and returned fire, killing the patron.
One of the security guards was shot and taken to a local hospital.
Three women were also caught in the crossfire — two of them were transported to the hospital while the third was treated at the scene after being grazed.
“I’m very sorry for what happened but bad for the bar, bad for my business and other business in the neighborhood,” said Samuels.
Nearby business owners are concerned after the recent shooting.
“I don’t want trouble from nobody,” said nearby business owner Carlos.
“We don’t want to see nothing like this in this neighborhood and hope it don’t happen again,” said Samuels.
All victims were taken to the hospital are in stable condition.
Several homicide detectives continue to investigate.
