"We don't know the motive behind the shooting, we are not discarding anything, it could very well be road rage, it could be maybe they knew each other," Fallat said.
Detectives at this point have more questions than answers but are hoping someone with information comes forward.
"I don't have a make or model, but I know someone out there must know something and we need the person or persons that may have caught a bit of what actually took place to call us," Fallat said.
Anyone with information is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS.
