MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Doctors at Aventura Hospital released a Golden Beach police officer Saturday after he was treated for a gunshot wound.
The gunman who shot him in the arm died in a vacant home at 106 NE 11th Ct., Miami-Dade police Detective Jennifer Capote said.
Capote said a woman called police after seeing a man outside her house.
"(He was) armed with a gun and he appeared to have his face covered," Capote said.
Capote said the man told the woman to go back inside, and she called police.
Police from several agencies arrived and tracked down the man at the vacant home. A Golden Beach police officer was shot after entering the home.
Negotiators tried to make contact with the man, to no avail. SWAT team officers eventually entered the home and found him dead.
