HOLLYWOOD, FLA. (WSVN) - The search for a shooter continues Monday after a victim remains in critical condition after being shot in Hollywood.
Hollywood Police officers responded to the area of Fillmore Street, near North 26th Avenue, Sunday afternoon, after they received a 911 call about a possible shooting in the area at around 3:00 p.m.
The home is believed to be a vacation property.
Neighbors said they felt uneasy, not knowing who exactly the victim was.
“We see police patrolling during the day, during the night so we feel pretty safe. This house doesn’t really bring good news for the neighborhood,” said Christophe Barbier, whose Ring camera captured an image of a man who neighbors believe may have been waiting for an opportunity. “He was just waiting for the right time to shoot.”
Responding officers arrived at a home to find the victim suffering from critical gunshot wounds. Police swarmed the area with guns drawn, along with a chopper looking for clues.
“We see police patrolling during the day, during at night, so we think we are safe,” continued Barbier. “But this house doesn’t really bring good news for the neighborhood.”
Barbier said he sees a lot of activity in the house with people constantly coming and going.
“It has never been the same,” he said.
It has not been confirmed if the home is linked to the shooting or if it just happen to occur in front of the property.
Detectives said an altercation between two people led to the gunfire. They are investigating the incident as a possible attempted homicide.
