Police Killed Shooter

A double shooting at Broward Transit left two dead. Broward County Transit, the second largest bus company in Florida, experienced a double shooting. Late Wednesday night, a dispute between two fleet service mechanics became deadly.

At about 11:20 p.m. this evening, an argument at a time clock erupted into a deadly shooting.

Coworkers gave the name of the shooter as fifty-nine-year-old R.M. They describe him as a tall, relatively mild-mannered Latino. After R.M. opened fire on his coworker W.C., at the time clock, other employees called the police.
There was a minor standoff when Broward Sheriff’s deputies arrived to investigate.

According to B.S.O. deputies, R.M. opened fire on them, and three deputies returned the fire. The gun battle involved the firing of at least 30 rounds.  
Deputies shot the suspect, (R.M.) who succumbed to his injuries.

Police are withholding the names of the victims until they notify their next of kin. The Broward Sheriff’s Office is investigating what led to the shooting. Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) also assists with the investigation.

On July 1, 2023, Florida Gov Ron DeSantis signed the Permitless Concealed Carry gun law. Broward County policy disallows most employees from bringing firearms to work. However, county employee representatives argue that state law trumps county policy.
