First responders received reports of gunfire at approximately 1 p.m. from a location approximately one mile east of Doral, near the West Airport Shopping Centre at 7367 NW 36th St., according to police.
Two patients were transported to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital—one by ambulance and one by helicopter—according to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue, as reported by the Miami Herald. Fire rescue officials also stated that another individual received on-site treatment for non-life-threatening injuries.

Following the event, a reporter from the Miami Herald observed the detention of one juvenile outside of Dios Con Nosotros, a DCN church in Doral.
