According to NBC Miami, the shooting took place around 12:30 a.m. at a banquet hall being rented for a release party for a local rap artist. Two people were killed, three remain in critical condition, and 17 others were shot and taken to different local hospitals.  

On Monday, police released a new surveillance video that caught the suspects getting out of a white SUV with face masks carrying guns. That vehicle, a Nissan Pathfinder reported stolen on May 15, has since been recovered from a canal in Golden Gables.  

Entrepreneur and TV host Marcus Lemonis offered $100.000 to help authorities find the shooters. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ Miami branch donated $25,000.  

Alfredo “Freddy” Ramirez III, Director of the Miami-Dade Police Department, said the community must work together. “We must act now as the strong community we are! The small amount of bad actors do not represent #OurCounty…We will bring these cold-blooded murders to face justice!” he tweeted 

Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to contact Florida Crime Stoppers.
