Police are investigating an alleged attempted robbery and shootout that happened in Miami Tuesday.
It happened at NE 14th Street and NE Miami Court, just east of Miami Avenue in the redeveloped part of Overtown, surrounded by new high-rise apartment buildings and trendy businesses.
Police said a man called them and reported that three men approached him and demanded his jewelry. They fired several shots at him, and the victim returned fire.
No injuries were reported, authorities said.
Miami police were processing the crime scene as the sun rose, including a black Mercedes.
Police were hoping to get an assist from the security cameras around the area, but the building manager told NBC6 his cameras did not see anything, as their views were blocked by the trees.
“ Police said a man called them and reported that three men approached him and demanded his jewelry. They fired several shots at him, and the victim returned fire.”
**********************************************
The victim did the correct thing by reporting the incident even though possibly no one was injured. When involved in a self-defense shooting, always make sure to call the police first to minimize the possibility of the actual perps calling and reporting that you were the one who initiated the incident.
Correct.
He could not be certain no one was injured. Criminals are often reluctant to show up at a hospital with a “minor” gun shot wound.
If you have a USCCA membership call them too!
USCCA is horrible and will more than likely deny you an attorney. Go to the Heavy Duty County YouTube channel where he repeatedly calls them out for their practices.
“Numerous shots fired. No one known to be hit.”
That’s what happens when the firearm is fired in a sideways position.
Blacks ALWAYS have to be different
“Criminals are often reluctant to show up at a hospital with a “minor” gun shot wound”
Because hospitals are required to notify law enforcement about gun shot wound victims.....as a matter of fact nowadays a lot of hospitals have police officers stationed at ERs 24/7.

DIP your ammo in poison-—will turn minor into major
Good thing this was in Florida - in California, the victim would have been arrested - and sued by the perps.
Overtown. A war zone for decades.
Still ghetto-adjacent, I presume.
I had occasion to walk through Overtown at 1AM in the early ‘80s, when our car broke down on the freeway.
That is the first negative comment I have ever seen about USCCA!
Need more information, please.
Who is the Heavy Duty County YouTuber who is calling them out?
Uh ...relocate the cameras?

Not entirely sure if the links will work but he calls out USCCA for denying/dropping coverage and hammers on Tim Kennedy.
Thanks. I’ll check it out.
The host is a big 2A supporter if you couldn’t tell from the background.
