DAVIE, FLA. (WSVN) - Police have released new details surrounding a shootout in Davie on Friday that left two men dead.

Davie Police responded to the intersection of Flamingo Road and Southwest Eighth Street just before 2 p.m. and located a deceased man inside of a work truck.

Authorities identified the victim on Wednesday as 41-year-old retired U.S. Marine Keith Byrne.

A dark-colored BMW M5 sedan was the second car involved in the shooting. The passenger inside of the car, later identified as 22-year-old Andre Sinclair, suffered at least two gunshot wounds and was found lying in the street.

Fire rescue crews transported him to Broward Health Medical Center, where he later succumbed to his injuries.

Police said Byrne had accidentally cut off the BMW before both cars approached a red light.

Byrne attempted to apologize to Sinclair’s girlfriend, who was driving the BMW, at the red light when Sinclair brandished a gun, according to police.

Sinclair was sitting in the passenger seat while his 19-month-old daughter sat in the back.

“At that point, the driver, Mr. Sinclair’s girlfriend, had grabbed him by the shirt, tried to prevent him from getting out of the vehicle,” said Davie Police Lt. Mark Leone. “He did get out armed with a gun and went towards the work truck.”

The two opened fire, and Byrne was shot. Byrne was pronounced dead at the scene.

As a Floridian, I am offended by your post. But, since we have freedom of speech, you are allowed to say what you want. Just remember that when you do so, there are people out there that you offend. And yes I am conservative and a Trump supporter.

Who got out of their vehicle first? That’s usually the aggressor in road rage incidents

Both held concealed carry permits. Not very good PR for concealed carry.

I’m glad he shot back before he died, because that’s the only way to get justice anymore.

“22 yrs old

Not only is “guess the race” a sure thing in this instance, but you can just bet that this occurred because Andre decided that “this cracker didn’t show me respect” or some similar BS.

Andre doesn’t deserve any respect, because he hasn’t earned it from anyone, let alone a former Marine. Andre deserves one thing, and one thing only - jail time, and lots of it. There was no threat here, yet he pulled out a gun and started shooting. This is NOT justified in any way.

I really believe that the, “Florida man” schtick, while funny, is meant to disparage Floridians who have voted conservative in elections for some time. This applies to southerners generally; often depicted as slow, drawling red necks in the media.

Of course, Californians are all fruits and nuts and let’s not forget Massholes. We should try to keep in mind that ALL generalizations are untrue!)

Dindu murders Marine who showed far too much respect for the lowlife by trying to apologize. At least he took out the Dindu on his way to heaven. Thanks for that.

Kind of young to be able to afford a M5. Might have been an old POS though.

Ironic a BMW driver objects to being cut off, the way they drive.

Oh my goodness. I see you are new here. You should immediately ask a moderator for an online “I am offended” form. They are really strict here about people saying unflattering true things about Floriduh.
