The City of Miami Beach declared state of emergency measures — including a curfew — amid recent violence during spring break.
"We just simply cannot have people come to our city and have to worry about being shot," Gelber said."That's not a way a city can operate."
In the most recent incident, two women were hospitalized after a shooting at around 1 a.m. Monday in the 700 block of Ocean Drive in the Florida city. On Sunday morning, three people were hospitalized after a shooting just after midnight along Ocean Drive near 8th Street. Cellphone video shows a crowd of people running away after shots were fired.
