Surveillance video captured the chaos that unfolded after a shooting that injured at least one person outside a Christmas party in southwest Miami-Dade.

It happened around 2:14 a.m. outside a house near Southwest 34th St. and 104th Court.

The façade of the house was left with bullet holes everywhere — in the walls, in the car windows, the mailbox and even in the water network, which ended up exploding, according to the house owners.

The homeowner told NBC6 that one of the bullets entered through the main door, nearly causing a tragedy. Inside the house was the woman with her husband, brother and four children.

“I can't erase it from my mind — the images that I saw and everything," the woman said. "I'm not going to be able to get it out of my mind, I don't know when. I'm nervous... I'm shaking. It's my patio; it's my view of the house."

Across the street from where the shooting happened, there was a Christmas party at a house that is rented by the day, neighbors said.

“It is not fair that we are going through this,” they said.

Surveillance videos also show the moments after the shooting.

The victim was shot by a man next to a car. Seconds later, a vehicle arrived and parked in the middle of the street. The people seen in the video loaded the injured man into the trunk and took him away before the paramedics arrived.

Video shows police patrols arriving at the scene.

The victim was taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital by a friend and is in stable condition, Miami-Dade Police said.
