FLORIDA CITY, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a man shot a woman he
knew while she was working at a Wal-Mart in Florida City, then fatally
shot himself.
Miami-Dade Police Department spokeswoman Rebeca Perez says the
shooting happened inside the store just before 10 a.m. on
Wednesday, following an argument between the two. The woman
suffered gunshot wounds and is in critical condition. The man was
pronounced dead at the hospital. Their identities have not yet been
released.
Wal-Mart spokesman Dan Fogleman says the company is "deeply
concerned" for the woman's well-being. Officials are monitoring
the situation and cooperating with law enforcement.
