FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - An investigation is underway after shots were fired at a tattoo parlor in Fort Lauderdale.

Fort Lauderdale Police and Fire Rescue responded to the business along the 3300 block of West Broward Boulevard., Thursday afternoon.

7Skyforce hovered above the scene, where armed officers surrounded the tattoo parlor.

No victim was found at the scene, nor was the alleged shooter.
