NASSAU, BAHAMAS — Police officers at the South Beach Police Station recorded the 70th homicide of the year following a violent incident involving multiple gunmen. On Saturday evening, officers heard gunshots coming from the rear of the station. Upon investigating, they observed gunmen firing at a red Dodge Ram with a single male occupant.
The situation intensified as the suspects fled the scene. Officers reportedly pursued them in their personal vehicles along Pine Crest Boulevard and onto Bamboo Boulevard, and the chase ended when the suspects collided with a civilian vehicle.
Three suspects exited their vehicle and attempted to flee on foot. During the pursuit, police engaged in a shootout with one suspect, who was subsequently shot and transported to Princess Margaret Hospital. A weapon was found on this individual, and another weapon was recovered from the vehicle.
Two of the suspects were apprehended and are now in police custody. Authorities are actively searching for the third suspect involved in the incident.
