MIRAMAR, FLA. (WSVN) - A man died in a late-night shooting in Miramar, in what appears to be accidental.

Miramar Police responded Thursday to the 10700 block of North Preserve Way around 11 p.m. Detectives could be seen gathering evidence on Friday afternoon.

“When officers got on scene, they came in contact with two people outside of the apartment complex,” said Tiffany Roy, a Miramar Police officer. “Officers started CPR until fire rescue got here to transport the victim to Memorial Regional [Hospital]. He was later pronounced deceased at the hospital.”
