“Two men approached the victims as they got home,” said Hialeah police spokesman Det. Eddie Rodriguez. “One of the men was armed with a handgun. They begin to rob the victims when all of a sudden the robber shot one of the victims.”

The armed man and his partner in crime then took off. Rodriguez said officers will canvas the neighborhood to see if anyone saw or heard anything.
