Surveillance video shows driver shooting man after altercation at Pompano Beach gas station

Surveillance video obtained by CBS News Miami shows the moment a driver opened fire on a man at a Pompano Beach gas station Tuesday afternoon, minutes after separate footage captured the man in a physical altercation with a woman at the same location.

The shooting was reported shortly before 3 p.m. near East Atlantic Boulevard and Northeast First Avenue, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office.

Deputies and Pompano Beach Fire Rescue responded and found an adult man who had been shot. Paramedics transported him to an area hospital for treatment. His condition was not immediately released.

BSO said deputies detained an individual at the scene. Authorities did not identify that person or say what connection, if any, they had to the shooting. 

The video shows a man wearing a white shirt approaching an SUV and repeatedly getting into a physical fight with a woman who had been in the passenger seat. It was not immediately clear what led to the confrontation.

A baby-on-board sticker could be seen on the vehicle, and a toy car was on the ground nearby, but it was not clear whether a child was inside the SUV during the altercation.

Surveillance cameras later captured the man walking into the gas station and buying a single cigarette. As he walked away from the station, video shows the driver of the SUV shooting at him. The man then ran from the scene and stumbled into a parking lot across the street.

Sunny Miller works at 3 Little Charlies, a food truck parked at the gas station. He stayed inside the truck until deputies arrived. 

"I heard gunshots when I was working," Miller said. "I heard 4, 5, maybe even 6 bangs and I ran for cover." 

Detectives with BSO's Violent Crimes Unit and members of the Crime Scene Unit responded to investigate.

The investigation remains active and ongoing. No additional details were immediately available.
