Shariff Akim Miner Jr, 31, was shot and killed on September 1, 2021, in Miami Gardens. The shooting occurred at the intersection of Northwest 10th Avenue and Northwest 46th Street in Liberty City during what investigators described as a drug deal gone wrong. Shariff and his step-brother, Sheldon Finley Jr., both died from gunshot wounds; Shamauri Miner, Shariff’s brother, survived with a gunshot wound to his hand.

Police found Shamauri Miner at the scene with a large amount of cash and a bookie ticket, and two young children were discovered in a car in distressing conditions. Shamauri Miner was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder, attempted armed robbery, and child neglect; he was held without bond while authorities collected firearms, casings, and other evidence.

Shariff was a South Florida resident laid to rest in Hollywood, Florida; his family and friends mourned his death. Does anyone have information about Shariff, the incident that night, or the people involved?
