On the evening of July 7, 2025, 47-year-old Tarasik Abdell of North Miami Beach was fatally shot in a double-shooting at an apartment complex off Northeast 161st Street. Officers found two male victims; both were taken to a local hospital and Abdell died of his injuries while the other victim survived. Early reports placed the scene in the 2000–2400 block of NE 161st Street and suggested gunfire may have come from inside a second-floor apartment, prompting detectives to canvas the complex and interview neighbors.

Authorities confirmed Abdell’s name, age, date of death and city on memorial and incident registries and described a community shaken by the sudden violence. In the days after the shooting no arrests, suspect identifications or motive had been announced, and investigators asked the public and Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers for tips. If anyone was in or near the complex that evening or has information about the hours before the shooting, please share what was seen or heard.
