A Tamarac neighborhood is shaken up after learning a man was shot and killed in their neighborhood.
“We heard four gunshots, and then a woman screaming,” said Daniel Berrio, who lives right across the home where the shooting happened.
Broward Sheriff’s Office officials say a call came in just before 5 a.m. of a shooting near the 5900 block of Riverside Drive. Deputies responded and found the body of one man.
Berrio says the neighborhood is typically very quiet and was shocked when he learned someone was killed.

“It's a great community we just moved in here last year," Berrio said. "We’ve been here for about a year...it’s quiet, kid-friendly neighborhood. It's just very surprising.”
Christian Lopez lives right next to the home where the shooting happened. He says he took his family out after the shooting to make sure they were safe
"Just in case if there's any type of retaliation or anything I didn't want to be involved with that, so I decided to take my family out for a little while," he said.
