A man is dead after his car was riddled with bullets in a shooting in Miami-Dade's West Perrine neighborhood early Friday morning.
According to Miami-Dade Police, officers responded to the area near the 10000 block of W. Indigo Street before 3 a.m. after receiving a ShotSpotter alert.
When officers arrived, they found a man inside of a car suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
"I looked at the car and I dialed 911 because I saw gunshots in the passenger side and the back window was shot completely out," one neighbor said. "I don't know what happened, who did what, or anything like that, but they dragged him out of the car."
