Family, Miramar police beg for answers in unsolved 2022 drive-by double homicide

MIRAMAR, Fla. ā€“ Miramar police held a news conference Tuesday morning alongside family members of the victims in an unsolved 2022 double homicide.

The deadly drive-by shooting happened on the evening March 17, 2022 outside Poohchelloā€™s Restaurant, located in a shopping center at County Line Road and Southwest 69th Avenue.

Brent Hart, 25, and Dumas Cherizol-Amilcar, 27, were killed. The two had been picking up food from the restaurant with two other friends.

ā€œHonestly, I donā€™t know how more people werenā€™t hurt. Thatā€™s a busy shopping center,ā€ Miramar police Detective Susan Smith, the lead investigator in the case, said Tuesday. ā€œThereā€™s a restaurant, a church, a daycare. There was at least one adult and one child inside the daycare when the shooting happened and the daycare in front of the business actually was struck by gunfire.ā€

Family members pleaded for the publicā€™s help to come forward and help solve the case.

ā€œSomebody shot my son and killed him in cold blood,ā€ Erica Wilson-Price, Hartā€™s mother, said. ā€œI need somebody to come forward and really say what happened. Somebody knows what happened.ā€

Smith said itā€™s unclear whether the shooter targeted the two men or whether the shooting was random. Surveillance video showed Hart running into the restaurant after being shot.

ā€œUnfortunately, we donā€™t have a motive,ā€ Smith said. ā€œWeā€™re working with limited information.ā€

Anyone with information is asked to call Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-8477. Family members have started a GoFundMe page to help increase the reward in the case.

ā€œI would do anything to have my little brother back and someoneā€™s split decision has turned our world upside down,ā€ Tahisha Amilcar-Dees, Cherizol-Amilcarā€™s sister, said in a pre-recorded video.
