Four people were found dead Sunday afternoon in a Kendale Lakes home in an apparent murder-suicide, according to Miami-Dade police.
"I’m stunned because I’ve been living here for 25 years and nothing like this has ever happened," said one neighbor.
According to police, they received a call requesting a welfare check at the home at SW 138th Ave and SW 45 Terrace shortly before 2 p.m. on Sunday.
When police went inside, they found the bodies of two women and a man. All had been shot.
As officers searched the residence, they discovered another man with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound and a gun lying near him.
Miami Heat legend Alonzo Mourning underwent surgery in mid-March to remove his prostate after a diagnosis of Stage 3 cancer, the NBA Hall of Famer revealed in an interview with ESPN published this Monday.
According to ESPN, Mourning’s recent testing shows that the cancer did not spread anywhere else in his body and therefore he is now cancer-free.
Mourning is using his story to inspire others to get screenings.
"The only way to find out is to get their blood tested and get their PSA checked. There are 3.3 million men living in the U.S. with prostate cancer and many don’t even know it. I was one of those guys," Mourning told ESPN.
Mourning had a significant impact on the Miami Heat during his time there. He played for the Heat from 1995 to 2002 and then again from 2005 to 2008, playing a crucial role in the Heat’s first NBA Championship in 2006.
Singer and rapper Sean Kingston was booked into Broward County jail late Sunday, days after the Jamaican-born artist was extradited to Florida on million-dollar fraud charges. He faced a judge Monday morning.
Kingston, whose legal name is Kisean Anderson, and his 61-year-old mother Janice Turner have been charged with conducting an organized scheme to defraud, grand theft, identity theft, and related crimes, according to arrest warrants released by the Broward Sheriff’s Office. The warrants allege they stole money, jewelry, a Cadillac Escalade and furniture.
Kingston was arrested last month at Fort Irwin, an Army training base in California’s Mojave Desert where he was performing. Last Tuesday, he waived his right to fight the extradition.
On the same day of his arrest, Turner was taken into custody when police raided a Southwest Ranches mansion he had been renting.
