Deputies are investigating how a man and woman wound up shot to death in Southwest Miami-Dade on Saturday afternoon.
Just after 1 p.m., the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of a man bleeding near 17000 SW 153rd Ct., just south of Country Walk in the area of Richmond West. Upon arrival, deputies found a man and woman suffering from apparent gunshot wounds, MDSO said.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded to the scene and pronounced the two victims dead on the scene, MDSO said.
One neighbor who spoke with CBS News Miami said they were shaken up and shocked by what happened.
“I heard there was a homicide and that it is very rare in this area,” said Elaine Gonzalez. “This is a calm neighborhood, as you can see, we are good people.”
When CBS News Miami asked whether the shooting was a domestic situation, an MDSO spokesperson said they are “not discarding the possibility.” Authorities have not identified the man and woman.
MDSO said its homicide detectives have assumed the investigation.
