MIAMI BEACH (CBSMiami) - Miami Beach police are looking for a person who they believe is a critical witness to a deadly shooting on Ocean Drive earlier this month.

On Friday, they named Christopher Huff a "person of interest" in the March 13th shooting in which 20-year old Antoinne Decade was killed.

The shooting happened around 12:40 a.m. in the 900 block of Ocean Drive. Because of the large Spring Break crowds, more police than usual were in the area and immediately sealed of the shooting scene and administered aid to Decade.

Decade, who was shot once in the chest, was taken to the Ryder Trauma Center where he died.

Police said those involved in the shooting are locals and know each other.

Just before 1 a.m. there was a second shooting, this one in the 700 block of Ocean Court. Police found shell casings but did not find evidence that anyone was actually hit.
