MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. (WSVN) - A man was killed and a woman is in critical condition after a shooting in Miami Gardens led to a vehicle crashing next to a townhome, police said.
Miami Gardens Police units responded to the scene of the crash near Northwest 13th Court and 214th Street, early Friday morning,
Surveillance footage showcased the moment a white Range Rover careened into the fence of a home in Mallorca Isles, drawing a heavy police presence, early Friday morning.
According to investigators, the shooting took place elsewhere, near Northwest 208th Street and 14th Place.
Police said the male victim was shot in the chest, and he crashed while driving away from the scene of the shooting with the female victim in the passenger seat.
The family of the deceased man identified him as 28-year-old Demonte Lumpkin.
Additional surveillance video captured audio of a gunshot as the SUV drives away. Seconds later, a woman is seen running down the street. It’s unclear what this woman’s involvement in the shooting is.
Detectives said the Range Rover crashed through a gate and some trees before it came to a halt at the townhome, just after 12:30 a.m.
“The cameras show he left the house at 12:36, and my baby was gone at 12:39. He was shot,” said Sheena Moorer, Lumpkin’s mother. “They said he got into his friend’s car to try and drive himself to the hospital, when he crashed.”
It was at this point that Miami Gardens Police were called.
7News spoke to witnesses who said they saw the crash unfold and that two people were inside; one was able to free themselves, while the other had to be pulled out.
“It’s a very sad situation. Very sad,” said one resident.
7News cameras captured both of the Range Rover’s driver and passenger doors opened, along with fallen trees and a broken gate as a result of the crash.
Lumpkin was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead, just weeks before his 29th birthday.
“I would give my life to save my kids, and I couldn’t save my child, my baby,” said Moorer. “Parents are not supposed to bury their kids, their kids are supposed to bury them.”
Police said the injured woman was dropped off at a hospital with multiple gunshot wounds. She’s currently listed in critical condition.
Now, the tight-knit family is shattered but determined to find who pulled the trigger.
“Whoever you are, they’re going to get you, and you are going to pay for what you did to my son, what a bond you broke when you took my son’s life,” said Moorer. “What did he do to you for you to take his life? While your mom still has you — even if you’re in prison, your momma still has you. Your momma could go and visit you. Now I have to go and visit a grave to see my son, my baby, and I ain’t going to sleep until they get you.”
Detectives have not provided a description on potential subjects, and no arrests have been made.
