Shocking new video shows drive-by shooting in Fort Lauderdale that left a man and woman dead

Shocking new surveillance video shows a drive-by shooting in Fort Lauderdale that left a man and woman dead and a 2-year-old child and two other people injured earlier this week, as police continue to search for the suspects responsible.

The shooting happened shortly before 8 p.m. Monday near the 800 block of Northwest 10th Terrace.

Footage released Thursday by Fort Lauderdale police shows several people in the area when a silver sedan pulls up.

A passenger door of the sedan opens and someone inside unleashes a volley of gunfire, hitting several people who fall to the ground while others run for safety as the car flees the scene.

Surveillance video shows a deadly drive-by shooting in Fort Lauderdale on Monday.

Fort Lauderdale police officials said officers responded to the area after receiving multiple 911 calls and a ShotSpotter alert.

When police arrived, they found several victims suffering from gunshot wounds, including a 2-year-old child and four adults.

A woman who was shot, identified by police Tuesday as Tiarra Holliday, 28, of Plantation, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Sheldon Lawrence, 45, of Fort Lauderdale, died at a local hospital.

The two-year-old child and two injured adults were treated for non-life-threatening injuries. Their identities have not been released.

A possible motive for the shooting has not been released.

Police are asking for information after two people were killed and four others injured, including a child, in an apparent drive-by shooting, NBC6’s Lena Salzbank reports.

Lawrence’s sister spoke with NBC6 on Thursday, saying he is a father, a brother and is expecting his first grandchild.

“He was a gentle giant,” she said. “This is where he grew up, he was sitting in a place where he felt safe, in his community where he felt safe.”

The sister said Lawrence’s death is the most recent tragedy to hit the family.

“No one deserves this and no one should ever have to go through this,” she said. “We were all we had left, my mom is gone, we just lost a brother in 2019 and here we are again, burying another one.”

Police said Thursday that the sedan was found abandoned shortly after the shooting, but the suspects have not been identified.

“I pray for all the victims, I pray even for those who committed this heinous crime, I pray to God to have mercy on their souls,” Lawrence’s sister said.

Police are searching for the suspects and are asking anyone with information to call them at 954-828-5931.
