NORTH MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – As police seek to identify and locate suspects in the case, newly-obtained surveillance video shows the moments a man was robbed, shot and left for dead in the street in North Miami Beach early Tuesday morning.

The footage shows a struggle as the victim puts his hands up and backs away. Moments later, one of the suspects goes to the car and grabs a gun before firing; the two later fled the scene in a black sedan, leaving the victim bleeding in the street.
