A man died in the hospital after he was shot several times early Thursday morning near a Midtown Miami mall and the shooter is still at large, police said.
At 4:08 a.m., officers rushed to the area near The Shops at Midtown Miami, 3401 N. Miami Ave., after two ShotSpotter alerts notified them that shots had been fired, said Miami police spokesman Officer Mike Vega.
They found Demarco Harris, 24, with multiple gunshot wounds across the street from the mall, in the parking lot behind The Sylvester cocktail bar and the Saccaro furniture store, Vega said.
The man was taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center, where he died an hour later.
The shooter had not been arrested as of 8 a.m.
