The woman fatally shot was a Florida corrections officer, although her place of employment was not released.
A vehicle that was carrying two victims, both of which died, wound up crashing into a wall while trying to get away. Police recovered a firearm inside the vehicle but do not yet know if that firearm was used during the shooting.
No arrests have been made, and police are asking the public’s help to find the vehicles believed to be involved.
An all-points bulletin was issued for a dark-colored Chevrolet Malibu and a white Toyota Camry witnesses saw speeding away from the chaotic scene, police said.
Our community was again painfully struck by gun violence overnight. No one is immune, this shooting took the life of a correctional officer. We all have the responsibility to report these killers. My deepest condolences to those affected by this intentional act of violence.
