MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. (WSVN) - A significant police presence was evident in a Miami Gardens neighborhood following reports of both a shooting and a pedestrian being struck.
The shooting occurred along Northwest 179th Terrace near Northwest Sixth Avenue, leading authorities to surround their investigation on two vehicles about a block away from one another.
