MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — What should have been a routine Tuesday at a Miami-Dade barbershop quickly turned violent, according to the shop’s owner, Samuel Wilson.

Wilson, who owns Square Cutz in Perrine, said a longtime customer became upset during a haircut and began arguing with him about his hairline.
Video from inside the barbershop shows the dispute escalating.
The customer briefly left the shop. Moments later, the video shows him returning with a gun, pointing it at Wilson as two children watched nearby and another customer attempted to intervene.
“He wasn’t a man when he had that gun,” Wilson said. “He slapped me in the head with it, choked me out.”
Wilson said he recognized the man and had cut his hair “many times before.” He added that the customer was wearing a county uniform during the confrontation.
“I did not think he was going to come around here and come back,” Wilson said. “I thought we might have fisticuffs … but I didn’t think he was going to come back with a firearm. I told him, man, have a good day.”
Despite the attack, Wilson said he does not plan to leave the community where he opened his business five years ago.
“This is a safe place for anybody,” he said.
Wilson said he hopes to move forward, even as he continues to process what happened.
“I don’t hold no grudges,” he said. “I can’t say I can forgive him. But I hope the best for you, homie. Have a good day and have a good life.”

Trump shares renderings of his presidential library — a massive skyscraper in Miami
President Donald Trump on Monday teased the plans for his presidential library in Miami.
Trump posted a video on Truth Social that shows a tall, glass building with a large needle on top. The building has his last name in gold lettering across its facade, an American flag hanging down the middle and a presidential plane displayed on the first floor. (A Boeing 747 given to Trump by the Qatari government is set to be displayed in his presidential library once he leaves office.)
The size of the proposed building dwarfs the nearby Freedom Tower, a downtown Miami landmark that carries special significance to Cuban immigrants in Florida — a key demographic that helped Trump win historically blue Miami-Dade County in 2024.
The video also shows replicas from Trump’s time in the White House, including the Oval Office, the West Colonnade featuring his so-called presidential walk of fame and his anticipated ballroom.
The presidential library will be designed by the Miami-based architecture and engineering firm Bermello Ajamil.
The site of the library — a prime piece of Miami real estate that borders the city’s waterfront — is a nearly 3-acre property valued at more than $67 million. The parcel became the source of a legal battle last fall after a federal judge paused the transfer of the land from a local college to the state. The judge ultimately threw out the case in December and allowed the transfer to continue.
The proposed site is not far from Trump National Doral, a resort owned by Trump’s family business.
In his Truth Social post sharing the video, Trump also included a link where people can donate to the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation Inc.

Could Miami Dolphins trade up in first round of 2026 NFL Draft?
Jon-Eric Sullivan — new Miami Dolphins general manager — has been busy acquiring a war chest of draft picks for the 2026 NFL Draft. The team currently has 11 picks in April’s selection process — including two first rounders and four third round picks.
While the team has plenty of holes in their roster that desperately need to be filled, could Sullivan’s stockpiling of picks have been conducted with the idea that the Dolphins want to move up in the first round of the draft in order to land an elite prospect?
Yesterday, Washington Commanders beat writer, Josh Taylor, dropped an interesting social media post where he said that he’s heard from two separate sources that the Dolphins and Commanders are in talks about a trade that would see Washington trade back from pick #7 in the first round in order for Miami to move up from pick #11.
Again, with Miami needing to upgrade at so many positions, it’s hard to guess which player the team might be targeting, but safety Caleb Downs, offensive lineman Francis Mauigoa, linebacker Sonny Styles, defensive linemen Rueben Bain and David Bailey are just some of the names that the Dolphins could be interested in.
Of course, as Taylor states, these whispers could remain just that — whispers.
With the Dolphins in full-on rebuilding mode, the team needs to bring in as many young, talented players as possible. Trading away draft picks instead of adding more would not help them to accomplish that goal. However, with the 2026 NFL Draft kicking off in less than a month, we won’t have to wait long to discover what Sullivan’s ultimate plan for his first draft as Dolphins general manager ultimately ends up being.
