Man dies after being shot multiple times in Hallandale Beach, police say

A man was killed, and a Hallandale Beach neighborhood is on edge after someone opened fire, with bullets striking a vehicle and a home.

Hallandale Beach police said the motive is still unclear and there have been no arrests after gunfire erupted on Monday night.

Bullets struck the home when the gunfire erupted, and a family was sleeping inside.

Neighbor Ricardo Longinos said he heard the shots just outside of his home just after 10:30 p.m.

"Like 7 or 8 shots," he said. "Straight up. And I knew it wasn't fireworks."

Then he saw his street, Northwest 4th Court in Hallandale Beach, blocked off with crime scene tape.

He said that investigators told him he wasn't allowed to leave, and he would likely be told to stay indoors for a period.

The family staying next door to the Longinos was visiting the United States from the Netherlands with three young children, and they had an uncomfortable close call.

A bullet appeared to have been shot through a window. The family didn't want to speak on camera with CBS News Miami.

But off camera, they all said it was a terrifying night. And many neighbors said they agreed.

"It was making me feel like I made a mistake buying this house," another resident said.

The preliminary investigation showed that the shooting took place in the 600 block of Northwest 4th Court.

The victim and a witness left the area in a vehicle before stopping at a Pembroke Road parking garage to call 911, according to police.

Officers found the victim in the car with multiple gunshot wounds, and they immediately started to render aid to the victim. However, despite their best efforts, he was later pronounced dead.

"It's just insane," Holly Quast said. "Something's gotta happen with these guns. No one's safe anywhere just to walk the dog or go to school or anything like that. Everything is basically connected. It's guns."

CBS News Miami also spoke with Laszlo Szlavik, who showed us where the evidence markers were placed at the scene just outside his home.

He said, "I heard it right in the street. It was that close. It sounded like fireworks you throw away. It was like choo, choo, choo, choo. Like 10 or 12 or 8 shots."

Then he revealed something else.

"What happened after the shots were fired? I heard a car speeding away, which was unusual, like a car leaving so fast you heard the acceleration," he said. 

He said, "It is horrible and very disturbing. I don't own a gun. People asked me about it, and I told them I don't even own a gun. It is upsetting. I have lived here for 2 1/2 years."

He urged people to come forward if they can help police.

He said, "If they know anything, there are witnesses."

Anyone with information that can help should call the Hallandale Beach Police Dept. At (954) 457-1400 or Broward Crime Stoppers at (954) 493-TIPS (8477).
