Investigation Underway After Person Shot In Hollywood Domestic Dispute

FORT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) - An early morning violent domestic incident led to a massive police presence in one Hollywood neighborhood early Thursday morning.

It happened around 6 a.m. in the area of 57th Street and Flagler Avenue.

Police said during a domestic dispute and one person was shot. The injured person was taken to the hospital. Their injury was described as non-life-threatening.

"There was a shooting. There was a shooting in the building. I was sleeping," said Vanessa Alonso.

The suspected shooter barricaded themselves in the apartment.

Alonso, who lives next door, said she was awakened by the gunfire.

"It was like boom, boom, boom, something like that," she said.

Neighbors say this happened after hearing people yelling last night.

"They have been arguing since last night. Last night, like around 12, they have been arguing, arguing, arguing, arguing," said Alonso.

Just before noon on Thursday police ordered anyone inside an apartment to come out carrying nothing, with their hands in the air. No one exited and shortly afterward police put their guns away.

Police are now looking for 22-year-old Tyler Santiago in connection to the shooting.
