Police were investigating a drive-by shooting at a North Miami Beach home Tuesday morning, the second day in a row the home has been hit by gunfire.
North Miami Beach Police said over 30 shots were fired into the home in the 15700 block of Northeast 15th Place. No injures were reported.
“This is someone that is careless, very careless to wait until someone’s sleeping to come and shoot up a house knowing it’s a family house,” said the homeowner who NBC 6 is identifying as Carline.

The incident came one day after a drive-by shooting left the home riddled with bullets Monday morning.
North Miami Beach Police officials said the shooting happened at a home shortly before 7 a.m. Monday. Several shots were fired into the residence but no injuries were reported, police said.
A 13-year-old who lives in the home told NBC 6 he was woken up by the gunfire.

“Someone started shooting and my auntie woke up," he said. "It sounded like 'pow, pow, pow.' We just stayed out here, [police] got our names and stuff, and then we went inside after three hours," he said.
A neighbor, Raul Serrano, told NBC 6 in Spanish he got home from work Monday morning moments after the shooting happened.
He said he is glad no one was injured, but it is scary to think that this could happen in their neighborhood.
Police did not release any details on the shooter or vehicle involved. No other information was immediately available.
“I don’t know where this is coming from, I don’t know who is part of any problems,” Carline said on Tuesday.
Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS.
