On the evening of January 6, 2026, 19-year-old Christian Corea was shot and killed during a shootout at a Sunoco gas station near Pembroke Road and DeSoto Boulevard in Miramar. Surveillance footage shows a conversation between three people at the pump that escalated into gunfire; bullets struck Christian and two others, including an innocent bystander who was hit while working on his car nearby. Christian died at the scene.

Christian was described by family as an aspiring firefighter who was turning his life around and was expecting his first child with his girlfriend, Angelina Moreno. His mother, Jennifer Mercedes, said she had lost her son and best friend. The family established a GoFundMe to help with funeral costs, and mourners have created a memorial at the gas station.

Authorities arrested 18-year-old J’shaun Williams, who was injured in the exchange and has been charged. Police say a third person fled the scene and remains at large; the Miramar police are asking the public for information. If anyone saw the incident or knows who fled the scene, please share what you know with investigators.
