Police identify man and woman killed and 2-year-old injured in Fort Lauderdale drive-by shooting – NBC 6 South Florida

Police have determined the identities of the man and woman killed in a drive-by shooting in Fort Lauderdale on Monday night. A two-year-old and two other people were injured. A search is underway to find those responsible.

The shooting occurred shortly before 8 p.m. near the 800 block of Northwest 10th Terrace.

Fort Lauderdale police officials said their officers arrived in the area after receiving several 911 calls and a ShotSpotter alert.

“I need the police, do you hear me? I need the police,” a man says in an emergency call from the crime scene to a dispatcher, while the screaming of a child can be heard in the background.

When officers arrived, they found several victims with gunshot wounds, including the two-year-old and four adults.

A woman identified by police Tuesday as 28-year-old Tiarra Holliday of Plantation was pronounced dead at the scene.

One of the men shot, 45-year-old Sheldon Lawrence of Fort Lauderdale, died at a local hospital.

The 2-year-old and two adults were treated for non-life-threatening injuries. Their identities were not released.

Police said there were initial reports that a sixth person had been injured, but that information turned out to be inaccurate.

Investigators concluded that this was a drive-by shooting and that the suspect(s) immediately fled the area.

Police are searching for the suspects and are asking anyone with information to call them at 954-828-5931.
