12. Possibly, revenge....The person they were chasing shot a policeman earlier that morning....

Who knows, though. It is complete insanity. That whole group should have their badges taken away.

Police Shooting Frenzy Raises Concerns

But what police didn’t realize before they started shooting at the Volvo is there was a second man in the car – Corsini Valdes – who had committed no crime.

And in fact, as CBS4 News was the first to report, both men inside the Volvo were unarmed at the time police caught up with them. All of the gunfire came from police.

Montesano and Valdes were killed by the dozens of rounds that tore through their bodies.

But Montesano and Valdes weren’t the only ones struck – two Miami Dade police officers were hit as well – caught in the crossfire. One officer was shot in the arm and the second was hit in the arm and grazed in the head. If the bullet had struck just a half an inch to the side the officer would have been killed.

Here is a different news source with an earlier take on what happened:

3 officers shot in Northwest Miami-Dade; 2 people killed in shootout
Posted on Tuesday, 12.10.13

Adrian Montesano’s friend and business partner was trying to figure out what caused the young man to snap on Tuesday, when Montesano allegedly stormed a Miami-Dade drugstore at gunpoint, then shot multiple police officers, stole a patrol car, and wrecked another vehicle before police shot him and another man dead in a hail of bullets.

“I watched it all go down on TV, just like everyone else,” said Manny Quiros, who for the past six years has owned a small air-conditioning business with Montesano called Montesa Solutions. Quiros said he had been friends with Montesano for more than a decade. “All I can say is, he’s a good guy, and I have no idea why he did what they’re saying he did.”

Police said Montesano, 27, the son of longtime Hialeah internist and real-estate developer Dr. Jesus Montesano, led them on a morning manhunt through Miami-Dade County. The incident left six officers injured — three with gunshot wounds — and ended in an ear-splitting shootout near Northwest 27th Avenue and 65th Street.

“It was like a war. I just kept hearing shots,” said Louise Lester, who lives in the Jolivette public-housing complex near the fatal shooting scene.
