LIGHTHOUSE POINT, FLA. (WSVN) - A 41-year-old man is dead after a domestic shooting took place in Lighthouse Point, authorities said.
According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, Lighthouse Point Police Officers responded to a domestic disturbance near the 2600 block of Northeast 49th Street in Lighthouse Point.
Upon arrival, investigators said, officers discovered a man suffering from a gunshot wound.
Paramedics transported him to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The victim has been identified as Bernabe Rodriquez. He was seen being taken out from the home in a stretcher by paramedics.
7News cameras captured detectives entering and exiting the home as they attempt to piece together what occurred.
On Thursday morning, BSO confirmed that the shooter was detained for questioning, but later released. No arrests have been made.
A few hours later, 7News cameras captured the woman, seen in handcuffs on Wednesday, walking back inside the home where the tragedy happened.
Neighbors said the woman that was in handcuffs lives in the home.
“I saw my neighbors working on their cars. There was a girl and a man, they were just talking like everything seemed fine,” said neighbor Joey Stazzone. “It really shocked me, not gonna lie. I’ve never actually seen this before in my entire life. I just saw 30 cops pull up, just randomly. I was going outside to get some air. It was crazy. I saw her walk outside and lay on the ground.”
Stazzone recalled his previous conversation with the victim.
“He seemed like a pretty nice guy. I talked to him once or twice with his daughter. Everything seemed OK. Nothing really seemed off,” he said.
“We were shocked,” said another neighbor.
On Thursday afternoon, Lighthouse Police Officers showed up to the home and began questioning family members inside.
It remains unclear what led to the shooting.
