A man is recovering in the hospital after being shot early Sunday in Lauderhill, according to local authorities.

Lauderhill Police said officers responded to reports of a shooting around 12:15 a.m. in the 2900 block of Northwest 56th Avenue. Upon arrival, they found the victim lying in a parking lot with multiple gunshot wounds.

Emergency crews transported the man to Broward Health Medical Center, where he remains in stable condition.

The area was cordoned off for several hours as investigators combed through the scene for evidence. No description of the suspect has been released.

Detectives are urging anyone with information to contact the Lauderhill Police Department at 954-497-4700 or to call Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477) to remain anonymous.

The shooting comes just days after Lauderhill city officials hosted a Public Safety Forum on June 12, in response to growing concerns about neighborhood violence. The event, led by Mayor Denise D. Grant, focused on strategies to foster safer communities and build stronger relationships between residents and law enforcement.
