Fiquei pasma ao saber que houve um tiroteio no shopping mais chic de Miami, o Bal Harbor, reduto chiquetérrimo dos Brasileiros chiques e famosos. O Carpaccio é um restaurante delicioso onde todos se divertem e comem pratos deliciosos, e bebem muito vinho rosé e praticam o delicioso passatempo de people watching.Tudo perfeito até que .... a fila de espera para uma mesa estava enorme, e um cliente ficou irritado e achou que alguém furou a fila. Ele simplesmente deu um tiro na perna do suposto furão de fila, que se não tivesse visto ele puxar a arma, teria levado o tiro no peito!!
A confusão se instalou, a policia tomou conta do local e a dúvida pairou dentre os comensais da Beautiful Life: Era um Brasileiro? A violência chegou ao Barl Harbor pelo aumento do número de Brasileiros que circulam por lá? A indagação está no ar até que a policia ache o franco atirador, que se Deus quiser, não será Brasileiro. Bad, bad news.

Gunman in Bal Harbour Shops shooting sought
BAL HARBOUR, Fla. (WSVN) -- Bal Harbour Police are searching for the man who ended his involvement in a dispute outside the restaurant of an upscale shopping center late Tuesday by opening fire.
The Bal Harbour Police Department said five people got into an argument outside an elevator in proximity to Bal Harbour Shops' Carpaccio moments before the chaos erupted.
Police said the incident began as an altercation between a man, now on the run, and a victim. "There was talk over a disturbance between some of the girlfriends and that rose into another level, but we are checking out with other government law enforcement agencies to see if there could be any other issues," said Bal Harbour Police Chief Tom Hunker.
The wounded knee of the shooter's supposed target can be seen in cell phone footage recorded by a patron in the aftermath of the fight. "A white male shot in the knee and a female shot in the foot," said Chief Hunker, making mention of the lower-leg injury suffered by a bystander.
7 News got in contact with the male shooting victim's father, Alex Bartnovsky, who lives in New York. He identifies the victim who was shot in the knee as his son Chris Bartnovsky.
Reporter: "When you spoke to your son what did he say?"
Bartnovsky: "He says he doesn't know why they hit him....he doesn't know."
Reporter: "And how is he doing?"
Bartnovsky: "Thank God, better."
Reporter: "But he's going through an operation right?"
Bartnovsky: "Yes, he got an operation already."
Police spent their entire day conducting an intensive investigation to take this suspect off the streets. "We have information right now of an individual that we believe may have been involved in this, who is quite prominent to South Florida and other parts of the United States," said Hunker.
An innocent by stander was injured, along with an elderly woman, who were both taken to the hospital. "Both of them are in satisfactory conditions. There is no life threatening injuries," said
"It's unsettling," said a resident, "but it's a sign of the times: as the economy [declines]...crime goes up."
If you have any information on this shooting, call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS. Remember, you can always remain anonymous, and you may be eligible for a reward.

ResponderExcluirPROCURE POSTAR SUAS INFORMACOES MAIS EXATAS. EM PRIMEIRO LUGAR PQ BRASILEIROS????? SERA QUE ERA? SERA? . EM PRIMEIRO LUGAR EU SOU BRASILEIRA , ESTAVA LA , E NAO FOI UM BRASILEIRO QUE ATIROU FOI UM AMERICANO MESMO OK!!!!!!!!! .
GRATA.
Prezada Monica. Moro aqui em Miami ha' 15 anos e acompanho sempre as noticias diarias.
ResponderExcluirEm nenhum momento se falou nos noticiarios locais que poderia ser um brasileiro. A disputa tambem nao foi por causa da fila do Carpaccio. Foi por causa de mulher, segundo informa a Polica.
O atirador esta foragido, mas nunca se cogitou que poderia ser brasileiro.
Os brasileiros aqui hoje sao o delírio da cidade! Eles vem e compram tudo. cheios de graça, alegria e muitos dolares!
Primeiro, nao passariam na segurança da Alfândega com armas; 2º, se sao moradores aqui da Florida, sabem que apenas por apontar uma arma em alguma situação, senao possuem a licença, pegam 25 anos de prisão.
Ja' fomos marginalizados aqui por tantos anos, agora que estamos por cima, nem caberia passar uma informaçao nao totalmente fiel, fazendo qualquer alusão ao involvimento de brasileiros.
Te passo o link da noticia:

Querida Heloisa,
ResponderExcluirAssim como você, já morei em Miami e continuo visitando muito esta cidade que adoro e considero minha segunda casa. Sei como os Brasileiros são vistos, adorados e queridos! Recebi esta noticia de uma amiga que mora ai, que postou no Facebook e que até me sugeriu a postar no meu Blog. Liguei depois para várias pessoas que trabalham no Bal Harbor, de quem sou cliente, e elas falaram que o papo que estava rolando ai era este, que a violência havia chegado ai, a exemplo do Rio ou São Paulo. Não quero polemizar, mas quem sabe o assunto no Bal Harbor não está sendo discutido principalmente por causa da violência e da falta de segurança nas cidades Brasileiras, muito mais do que à respeito do caráter do povo Brasileiro. Quero ainda esclarecer que sou Brasileira, amo meu País e não estou aqui para denegrir a imagem do meu povo. Um beijo e muito obriugada pela seu construtivo comentário. Beijinho, Monica
