How a Suspect Forced An Undercover Miami Cop To Do Something Extremely Dangerous Or Be Killed
Florida police are glad to have back an undercover agent they sent to track down a suspected drug dealer; they are happy he’s back because the mission put the office in a sticky situation that nearly cost his life.
Let us explain. The agent was sent to find Randall Holloman at a home in Miami’s Model City neighborhood, per Local 10 News. Holloman had three prior convictions in Miami-Dade County for various offenses, including carrying a concealed weapon and burglary. Once the agent approached his door, the report says he asked him for $40 worth of fentanyl.
However, Holloman immediately got suspicious and asked, “Who sent you here?”
Police say the agent stayed in character and was ordered to go to the back of the house. That is when things took a turn. Police say Holloman gave the agent an impossible ultimatum.
“Alright, you gonna smoke, you gonna die. You gonna smoke or I’m gonna kill you either way,” Holloman is reported to have told the agent. He then beckoned the agent to walk inside the house. Police say the cop complied in fear.
Once inside, the arrest report says Holloman took out a piece of aluminum foil and a sandwich bag believed to contain fentanyl. Police reported the agent was force to smoke it. As that happened, another individual suspicious of the cop took his bag and searched it.
Eventually, the agent was kicked out of the home. Detectives brought him to the Miami Police Department’s Central Station where the agent was “cleared” by fire rescue personnel.
As a result of the risky mission, Local 10’s report says authorities were able to secure a search warrant. A narcotics unit was deployed to the Holloman’s location with a SWAT team where they found a loaded Glock 17, a loaded Zastava arms AK-style pistol with a magazine, ammunition and cocaine.
Police said they arrested Holloman on charges of kidnapping, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, selling cocaine, robbery by sudden snatching and attempted manslaughter.
A group of South Florida students is preparing to travel more than 8,000 miles to Zimbabwe next Wednesday, though organizers say reaching their fundraising goals has become increasingly difficult this year.
Ten students from Miami Central Senior High School are scheduled to spend 18 days in the country as part of the Blindfolded International Student Cultural Exchange Program (BISCEP). The initiative aims to provide students with cultural immersion and foster global relationships.
“I’m really excited but also a tad bit nervous,” said 11th grader Shonneice Ferris.
For student Samir Rios, the trip offers a chance to engage with a new community. “The most anticipated thing that I’m looking forward to is most likely the students and the kids,” Rios said.
During the 18-day excursion, students plan to attend local schools, volunteer at an orphanage, and visit sites including Victoria Falls. “The first week we’re going to be going to school in Zimbabwe,” Ferris said.
Despite the program’s history of successful trips, BISCEP founder Edwin Sheppard said fundraising efforts have stalled. Many longtime donors have reduced their contributions due to budget constraints.
“A lot of our donors, our past donors, have not been able to donate what they’ve donated in the past,” Sheppard said. “A lot of budget cuts, and so we’re still struggling to raise all of the funding.”
Organizers confirmed the trip will proceed as scheduled despite the financial hurdles.
“This is two different schools, two different sides of the world and two different continents, and I think we’re going to do something amazing out of this,” Rios said.
The students are scheduled to depart next Wednesday. Organizers continue to seek donations to cover the remaining costs. Those interested in supporting the Miami Central Senior High students can find more information at biscep.org.
The contact period for 2028 recruits officially opened on June 15th, and Miami has been active on the recruiting trail.
Now more than ever, recruiting players early matters, with several committing before taking their official visits in their senior season.
Miami has been high on 2028 running back Terriel Harmon for a while, and he discussed the Hurricanes with Miami Hurricanes on SI.

The Hurricanes contacted Harmon almost immediately after the contact period opened and got down to business with him.
“The running backs coach (Coach Merritt) hit me up, and we just talked about the leadership I am going to bring to Miami and the environment of Miami,” Harmon said.
Even before the contact period opened up, Harmon already had a sense of what Miami was like.
“They bring the energy,” Harmon continued. “I love the players like Javian Mallory, Malachi Toney, and Mark Fletcher.”
Mallory is an incoming freshman running back at Miami, and he played high school ball at West Boca. Harmon just transferred to the South Florida power. The two of them have a great connection, and Mallory is recruiting Harmon to join him in college.
“He’s been telling me that Miami is the place to be and that it is great,” Harmon said.
Even though it’s still early in his recruitment, the Hurricanes are still in a prime position for the local three-star running back.
“I’m still not sure where I will go to school, but Miami is for sure at the top,” Harmon finished.
More About the 2028 Class
The 2028 class will be crucial for the future of Miami. Arguably, the two best prospects of the past few years, Amir Sears and Bryson Wright, are right in the Hurricanes’ backyard, and the two could change the course of Hurricanes football if they come.
Overall, the 2028 class in Florida might be one of the best in any state ever. There is so much talent throughout the state, and Miami is looking to get a class that rivals this 2027 class, which is the top three in the country per Rivals.
Some other in-state prospects that the Hurricanes are targeting include Gabriel Player (four-star linebacker), Asher Ghioto (four-star defensive lineman), Antonio Thompson Jr. (four-star defensive back), and George Selvie (four-star offensive lineman), amongst a ton of others.
While Harmon is only a three-star now, it would not be surprising if he becomes a four-star by the end of his senior season.
