Oakland Park Man Arrested For Deadly Weekend Shooting

FT. LAUDERDALE (CBS4) – Broward Sheriff's investigators say they have the man responsible for a deadly weekend shooting in custody.

Victor Ramos, 57, was arrested by deputies after they spotted him walking in an Oakland Park parking lot on the 4900 block of W. Atlantic Blvd. Deputies took Ramos to the hospital after he complained of dizziness. When discharged, he will be released into BSO custody.

Ramos is suspected of opening fire on his neighbor, killing him and injuring the man's girlfriend.

The shooting happened just after 7 p.m. Sunday outside a duplex at NW 40th Court and 5th Avenue. When deputies arrived they found 25-year old Kenneth Sewell's body behind the building and April Maria Muniz Moscareillo, 22, with a gunshot wound on her arm.

"I heard two gun shots and a couple minutes later saw guy swinging his arms all over the place, then he fired 3 more shots," said a person who did not wish to be identified in this report.

Moscareillo was taken to Broward Health Medical Center where she was treated and released.

SWAT teams searched the area for hours looking  for Ramos but came up empty.

"I'm hurt because I'm tired of losing all my loved ones," said Sewell's aunt Cassandra Thompson.

Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to call Broward Crime Stoppers at (954) 493-TIPS.
