Police are searching for a suspect after a woman was critically injured in a shooting at a storage facility in northeast Miami-Dade Friday.

The shooting happened at New Century Storage at 14444 W. Dixie Highway.

Miami-Dade Police officials said there was an altercation that ended in the woman being shot.

She was taken to a local hospital in critical condition. Family members identified her as 74-year-old Miranciane Amand.

"I just pray that she's OK," said her nephew, Marc Edner Jeudi. "Unfortunately this is not what my aunty was expecting Friday morning, to get shot multiple times. And now she's fighting for her life while the shooting is at large."

Police said the suspect is known but remained at large. Family members said the shooter is the ex-boyfriend of the victim’s granddaughter.

"So I hope that you get caught as soon as possible, before he did exactly what you want to do to somebody else," Jeudi said.

Investigators are asking anyone with information on the shooter’s whereabouts to come forward.

No other information was released.
