FORT LAUDERDALE – Broward County
Sheriff’s homicide detectives are investigating after a
woman was found dead Monday morning inside a condo in
Pompano Beach.
The Sheriff’s Office said it received a call around 5:19
a.m. Monday in reference to a woman found shot at 614
Gardens Drive. The woman’s name has not been released.
Inside the condo where the woman was found dead, deputies
also found two small children.
“We did locate two infant twins in the residence,” said
Gerdy St. Louis, a public information officer with the
Broward Sheriff’s Office. “We can confirm they are relatives
to the victim, or they’re related to the victim, however, we
cannot confirm the relation.”
St. Louis did not confirm whether the twins were alone with
the woman inside the condo when the shooting happened. CBS4
reached out to the Department of Children and Families and
we are waiting for a response.
“That’s really sad for those kids,” said neighbor Marissa
Snyder. “I hope they didn’t see it happen. That’s really
sad.”
The Broward Sheriff’s Office said detectives did not have
any suspects but called the deadly shooting an isolated
incident.
“We are asking residents in the area to contact BSO if they
have any information or if they heard anything suspicious
last night,” said St. Louis.
Homicide detectives are reviewing surveillance video in the
area and asking neighbors to call BSO if they have cameras
or video that can aid in the investigation.
