On Monday morning in Miami Gardens, an alarming incident unfolded when an elderly woman was shot by her son-in-law — sparking a rapid response by Miami Gardens Police and emergency crews in response to this shooting incident in the 4400 block of 203rd Terrace. Authorities were summoned after reports of gunfire and injuries were received at an address nearby. When officers arrived on the scene, they located an elderly female with gunshot wounds lying unconscious but responsive in the street, according to witnesses. Residents like Mayra Camero, who lives nearby, say the incident caused widespread alarm within her neighborhood. “One of my neighbors called and reported hearing screaming and yelling, followed by police cars and helicopters arriving,” Camero stated.
Camero reported that an alert passerby came upon the scene and immediately provided first aid; she stated, “he reported back that she was responding to all his queries,” thus prompting him to call 911 before staying by her side until emergency personnel arrived on the scene. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue airlifted the female victim from Miami-Dade to a local hospital for medical attention immediately, though authorities have yet to reveal her identity or current condition. Authorities also do not know who might have fired upon her – possibly her son-in-law – nor as to any possible motive behind their shooting spree.
