Miami Beach, Florida – According to police, Saturday evening a man was grazed by a bullet on the leg when someone opened fire in a busy part of South Beach.
Miami Beach Police say, they responded to a call of a possible shooting along Collins Avenue, near 20th Street.
According to Police, the victim refused medical assistance and was uncooperative with officers.
Officers temporarily shut down Collins Avenue between the 18th and 20th streets while they investigated. It has since been reopened to traffic.
The incident takes place as large crowds visiting the area to attend the 2021 Rolling Loud hip-hop festival flock to South Beach, leading to a stepped-up police presence and several road closures, including several eastbound lanes along the MacArthur and Julia Tuttle causeways.
No arrests have been reported in connection with the incident.
