PEMBROKE PINES, FLORIDA — A woman was taken to the hospital and a suspect was taken into custody after a shooting in Pembroke Pines late Tuesday morning.

Police have since confirmed the arrest of Otis Leevel Johnson, 24, on attempted murder charges.

Officers with the Pembroke Pines Police Department said they responded to the area of Northwest 78th Terrace and Third Street just before 11 a.m. after receiving reports of shots being fired.

“Preliminary information suggests that this is a domestic incident between known parties,” PPPD posted to its X account. “A woman was shot and taken to an area hospital for treatment. A man related to the shooting was taken into custody by Hollywood PD. This investigation remains ongoing.”

One resident reported seeing an all-out gunfight. Derick Williams said he watched what he believed were two men opening fire on one another.

“I saw two guys shooting at each other,” Williams said. “I didn’t notice there was a girl shot until the young lady ran out.”
