Man found shot dead inside of car at West Little River gas station, police say

MIAMI — An apparent shooting is under investigation after police say they found a man shot dead inside a car at a Northwest Miami-Dade gas station on Saturday.

Around 12:35 p.m., Miami-Dade Police were called out to reports of a shooting at a Sunflex gas station near 17th Avenue and Northwest 79th Street in West Little River.

When they arrived, they found the man inside of a car with apparent gunshot wounds. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue also responded and pronounced him dead, MDPD told CBS News Miami.

Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers are saying the man who was killed is Edward Bernard Bailey, but CBS News Miami has yet to confirm the man's identity.

MDPD's Homicide Bureau is currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the shooting. They have not identified any suspects or released further details.

This shooting is one of two investigations underway in Northwest Miami-Dade as MDPD was also investigating an incident in Gladeview, where a woman was also found shot dead inside of a car later Saturday evening. It is not confirmed at this time whether these shootings are connected.
