A man is behind bars after police say he fired shots from inside his Southwest Miami-Dade apartment.
Officials were called out to the scene, along Southwest 44th Street and 67th Avenue, at around 10:30 p.m., Thursday, when neighbors called 911 after hearing shots coming from inside the man’s apartment.
Once police arrived on the scene a perimeter was set up and a negotiator tried to speak with the man for several hours, but when that failed SRT was called in.
The man’s next-door neighbor, who did not wish to be identified, was inside her apartment at the time of the shooting. She said bullets flew through her closet wall and door, bursting a jug of laundry detergent.
The man, whose identity has not yet been released, eventually surrendered without incident at about 2 a.m., Friday.
