2 killed, multiple wounded in Miami shooting

Injuries range from minor to critical

MIAMI – Two people were killed and 10 others were wounded following an early morning shooting in Miami's Liberty City neighborhood, police said.

The dead include a 20-year-old man and a teenage girl. Police also say a 17-year-old girl was critically wounded in the shooting, which happened near an intersection around 2:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Miami police spokeswoman Frederica Burden says investigators are still trying to figure out what happened. The sidewalk was littered with dozens of spent shell casings marked by blue police cones and shattered glass by mid-morning Tuesday.

Some relatives standing nearby said they were afraid to talk about the shootings.

A Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital spokeswoman said she couldn't release information, including how many people were brought there. She also said the patients had chosen not to release information about their medical conditions.
