A woman, who is believed to be five months pregnant, was killed while her daughter and fiancee were injured after a hail of bullets tore through their car in West Park.

A short time later and about a half-mile away, authorities were called to a second incident where they found a 26-year-old-man lying dead.

The shootings appear unrelated, the Broward Sheriff’s Office said.

The first shootings occurred just before 10:45 p.m. Thursday.

Police report that a volley of gunshots were fired  into a gray sedan that was parked near an intersection. The bullets struck Tyrell Myrick, Patrice Nunnally, both 28, and Nunnally’s 9-year-old daughter, Kalaya Clark.

The shooters are suspected to be three men travelling in a dark-colored sports utility vehicle.

Myrick and Nunnally, were taken to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood. Nunnally died and Myrick remains hospitalized with serious injuries, the sheriff’s office said.

Kalaya remains hospitalized at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital with serious injuries.
