Miami police investigating two locations tied to Liberty City shooting that left man injured

A man is in the hospital after being shot in Liberty City on Wednesday evening, prompting a police investigation that spans two scenes, according to the Miami Police Department (MPD).

The victim, a man in his late 40s, was located at a second scene after the initial gunfire and was rushed to Ryder Trauma Center via ground transport under a "trauma alert".

The shooting investigation began just before 7:30 p.m. after Miami police say they received a ShotSpotter alert.

The first scene, where crime scene investigators were seen taking photos outside an apartment building, was along Northwest 58th Street and 13th Avenue. When officers arrived, they said they found shell casings but no victim.

A short time later, the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office contacted Miami police regarding a second location – Northwest 69th Street and 21st Avenue – tied to the same alert. 

The victim was found at this second location before being taken to the hospital.

It remains unclear how the victim ended up at the second location. 

No arrests have been made in connection with the shooting.
