BSO detectives investigate deadly shooting in Pompano Beach that leaves one man dead and another injured

Pompano Beach, Florida – Authorities are investigating a shooting that left one man dead and another injured Saturday afternoon in Pompano Beach, according to the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO).
Shortly before 2 p.m. on October 4, Broward County Regional Communications received multiple reports of gunfire in the 1600 block of Northwest 10th Circle. Deputies rushed to the scene alongside Pompano Beach Fire Rescue and discovered two adult men suffering from gunshot wounds.
Emergency crews provided immediate aid before both victims were taken to a nearby hospital. Despite the efforts of medical staff, one of the men did not survive his injuries. The second victim remains hospitalized, though officials have not released details on his condition.
“BSO deputies and Pompano Beach Fire Rescue responded. On scene, deputies located two adult males suffering from gunshot wounds. Paramedics transported the victims to an area hospital where one of the victims was pronounced deceased,” officials said in a statement.
Investigators from the BSO Homicide and Crime Scene units arrived shortly after to begin processing evidence and interviewing witnesses. The area remained cordoned off for several hours as detectives examined the scene and searched for potential surveillance footage.
The identity of the deceased has not yet been made public, pending notification of family members. No information has been released about a suspect or possible motive at this time.
Detectives are urging anyone with knowledge of the shooting to come forward. “Anyone with information on this incident is asked to contact BSO Detective Kevin Nitsch at 954-321-4876 or submit a tip through the SaferWatch app,” the Sheriff’s Office stated. Those wishing to remain anonymous can reach Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477), visit browardcrimestoppers.org, or dial TIPS (8477) from any cellphone nationwide.
As the investigation continues, BSO officials are calling on residents in the neighborhood to check any home surveillance systems for relevant video that may help identify the person or persons responsible for the deadly attack.
