The 26-year-old was taken into custody and later brought to a local hospital to receive an involuntary medical evaluation, police said.
“He's not arrested, he's detained right now,” Miami-Dade Police spokesman Louis Sierra said. “He's being questioned because, again, we're trying to figure out exactly what happened in this altercation and why a firearm was presented and obviously fired.”

A neighbor’s Ring video captured someone screaming “call the police.”
Families who live nearby said they were unsettled by the crime scene.
“To come home at this time and see this and not be able to go into your home is very nerve-racking and very uncomfortable,” one neighbor said. “I just want people to know it’s not a bad neighborhood. It’s very safe.”
Police said the man who is detained lives at the residence.
The investigation is ongoing.
