On April 18, 2017, 27-year-old Orlando Miret Jr. was shot and killed in Miami, Florida, in the Coral Way neighborhood near SW 37th Avenue and SW 27th Lane. Miret was found dead inside his car in the early morning hours after neighbors reported hearing gunshots and saw his vehicle still running. When officers arrived at the scene, they found Miret suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
The Miami Police Department has continued to investigate the incident as an unsolved homicide. Despite their efforts and an offer of a $3,000 reward through Crime Stoppers, no arrests have been made. Authorities have called for public assistance, urging anyone with information to come forward to help solve the case. Miret's family and friends held a vigil soon after his death, appealing for answers and justice.
This homicide is one of many unsolved cases in Miami, and law enforcement is still actively seeking information that could lead to the identification and arrest of the suspect or suspects involved. The lack of witnesses and leads has made progress in this case challenging for detectives, and the community has been encouraged to assist in the investigation by providing any potential information.
