Harrowing video shows gang members with automatic weapons open fire on rivals in Florida neighborhood
NY Post ^ | 5/19/24 | Isabel Keane

Harrowing video captured the moment gang members with automatic weapons opened fire in a south Florida neighborhood in what police say was a targeted attack that left locals ducking for cover in the middle of the night.

Footage from a neighbor’s security camera shows a group with weapons standing on a residential street in Miami Garden just after midnight Wednesday beginning to shoot as a silver Nissan approaches.

At least three hooded figures can be seen crouching on the ground waiting to ambush the approaching car — then rapidly firing at the vehicle as it drives past.

Neighbors said they heard at least 50 rounds from high-powered weapons. The brazen shooting eventually forced the driver off the road, plowing down a fence in a neighbor’s front yard, according to NBC 6.

Video also shows three people stumbling out of the targeted car making a mad dash away from the scene.

As gunfire rattled through the neighborhood, residents scrambled to take cover inside their homes — some of which were left riddled with bullet holes.

From what I can tell, no 'automatic' weapons were used. Plenty of shots, though. The video is impressive. A gauntlet. Shooting towards your thug pals is also a plus.

similar gang shootout happened in chicago i think it was, and kim fox refused to prosecute claiming 2 things, 1 that it was ‘mutual combat’ and 2 that ‘there wasn’t enough evidence to bring the case to court’ DESPITE there being video evidence showing the murder that took place- and evidence from a number of eye witnesses who saw the whole thing because traffic was stopped while the gun battle raged in the street evidently-

Why is it that everyone there said it was automatic weapons and you, who were not, says it wasn’t. It certainly sounded like machine gun bursts.

So, does Kim Fox say it is OK if two gangs of brutal thugs fight it out? If we could just clear the area of non-thugs, there might be something to be said for that.

Lori Lightfoot- the lightweight governor or mayor or whatever she was, was even appalled by fox’s non prosecution and retarded explanations why she refused to prosecute- that’;s how bad fox’s decision and claims were-

Folks,

if you watched all the tv shows and movies and liberal news, you would think this is normal behavior.

This really offends me.

Why should gang bangers get to have automatic weapons when I don't?

To the media, "automatic" and "semi-automatic" are synonymous.

If you live in a city or metro area with “Garden” in the name you need to seriously consider moving out as quickly as possible.

Looks like most of the shots ricocheted off the payment. Firing from the hip, sideways, with eyes closed will do that.
