Deadly shooting at Del Toro Insurance building appears to be murder-suicide, Miami Police say

Miami Police are investigating a deadly shooting inside a Del Toro Insurance office building early Monday which they say appears to be a murder-suicide. 

According to police, they received a call about the shooting at 42 NW 27 Avenue just after 8 a.m.  When officers arrived, they found a man and woman with gunshot wounds. 

Miami Fire Rescue responded to the scene, but both died before they could be taken to a hospital.  

Miami Police Captain Freddie Cruz said they were the only two people inside the building at the time and it appears the man shot the woman before turning the gun on himself. 

“It appears to be a murder-suicide at this moment. We don’t know the relationship between these individuals. It’s a very active case, our detectives are still working this case. What I can tell you is that we are not looking for anyone, the community is not in danger, we are not looking for a shooter and it appears to be an isolated incident. It is very horrific and very unfortunate,” Cruz said.

He added that it’s unclear if one or both worked for the Del Toro Insurance company. The names of those who died have not been released. 

Homicide detectives are working to determine what led to the shooting.
