MIAMI (WSVN) - A woman has been injured after someone opened fire on a car in Miami.
According to the woman’s husband, he, his wife and three children were in a blue Mustang near Northwest Second Avenue and 46th Street, early Monday morning, when someone opened fire, hitting the car at least five times.
“They were exiting the gas station at Two Avenue and 46th Street when shots were fired at them,” said Miami Police officer Michael Vega. “Later on we received a call from FHP and Miami-Dade Police Department at Jackson Memorial Hospital stating that female had come to the hospital with a possible gunshot wound.”
The family was able to get away and the man drove to the hospital where his wife was treated for a superficial wound to her head.
Police said the woman was only grazed by broken glass.
According to officials, the toddlers in the vehicle escaped unharmed.
Police said it’s too early to tell if this was an attempted robbery or something else.
“We need help from the public in determining what actually occurred and if anybody observed anybody suspicious in the area,” Vega said.
If you have any information on this shooting, call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS. Remember, you can always remain anonymous, and you may be eligible for a $1,000 reward.
