Homicide detectives with Florida’s Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) are seeking the public’s help in identifying the subjects involved in a shooting that left a 19-year-old dead on Mother’s Day 2021.

At approximately 12:16 a.m. on Sunday, May 9, BSO deputies were dispatched to a shooting at 1170 Sussex Drive in North Lauderdale. A few minutes later, Lauderdale Lakes BSO deputies were dispatched to Florida Medical Center for a gunshot victim. Deputies made contact with witnesses at the hospital who advised that the victim, Armani Harrison, had been shot at the Sussex Drive location.

Tragically, young Mr. Harrison succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased a short time later.

Further investigation by detectives revealed that Armani was attending a party located at 998 S.W. 81st Avenue in North Lauderdale a few minutes before he was shot. Witnesses stated that an unknown vehicle sideswiped Armani’s vehicle in the parking lot and fled. 

At some point, shots were fired at 1170 Sussex Drive in North Lauderdale, and Armani was hit and driven to Florida Medical Center where he died.
