The Broward Sheriff's Office is investigating after a shooting at a North Lauderdale sports bar left two men hospitalized and a third man dead early Sunday morning.
According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, a call was received shortly after 3:30 a.m. about a shooting near 5200 block of North State Road 7 at Player's Sports Bar and Grill.
"At Player's, this is not the first time I heard about a shooting. It has happened before," a resident nearby told NBC6. "I didn't know three people were shot, but I'm not surprised."
Two men received treatment for injuries listed as non-life-threatening, but the third victim was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.

Back in 2022, BSO responded to a similar shooting at the business after they said a fight occurred inside. When a patron was removed, he then opened fire at the bar leaving four people with gunshot wounds.
BSO Homicide Units are currently investigating the cause of this shooting and are still searching for a possible suspect.
Anyone with information about this incident is urged to call Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS.
