A Miami-Dade Sheriff's deputy shot a man dead following a traffic stop for illegal tints on his Chevrolet Corvette. The incident occurred after the man sped away, prompting a chase that ended in an apartment complex. Armed and confronted by deputies, the man was shot and pronounced dead on site. The deputy involved is on administrative leave while the Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigates. Officials noted that the situation could have been resolved with a simple citation.
At the end of the day, this was a simple traffic stop. This could have been just a citation, and everyone could have gone home.
Around 5:15 p.m., MDSO deputies with the Robbery Intervention Detail tried to pull over a man, in his early twenties, in the area of 66th Street and Northwest 22nd Avenue for having dark tints on his car.
