June 16 (UPI) -- Two people are dead and two injured in a shooting early Monday in Miami's Little Haiti.
Shortly after 12:10 a.m., Miami police were dispatched to reports of a shooting near Interstate 95 and Miami Edison Senior High School.
They found a man with gunshot wounds, and he was taken to Jackson Memorial's Trauma Center, where he died. Another man was found dead inside a black BMW riddled with bullet holes a few blocks away, police said.
"We soon learned that a second male drove a few blocks away from the scene," Miami spokeswoman Kiara Delva said.
Two other people took themselves to the trauma center. Their conditions weren't disclosed.
"We all ran in the house and jumped down, of course, and then called the police," a woman who lives in the area told WFOR-TV. "That's like, that's, I mean, that's the normal thing that we do as people."
Those dead and injured haven't been identified.
And no suspects have been identified.
"Detectives did, in fact, mention that they do believe there are other suspects who may be involved in this incident and this is why we need our community to come forward," Delva said.

Doctor agrees to plead guilty in connection with Matthew Perry's death
A doctor, accused of providing ketamine to 'Friends' actor Matthew Perry, has agreed to plead guilty, according to a plea agreement filed Monday. Perry died of a drug overdose and was found unresponsive in his hot tub in October 2023. File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo June 16 (UPI) -- A doctor, accused of providing ketamine to "Friends" star Matthew Perry, has agreed to plead guilty in connection with the actor's death, according to court documents filed Monday. Dr. Salvador Plasencia is expected to plead guilty to four counts of distribution of ketamine, per the plea agreement. The Santa Monica, Calif., physician could face up to 40 years in federal prison, while the recommended sentence in the agreement is somewhere between 15 and 21 months. Plasencia, who is expected to enter his plea in the next few weeks, was one of five people charged in connection with Perry's ketamine death in October 2023. Perry, 54, was found unresponsive in a hot tub at his Pacific Palisades home. Plasencia would not be the first to plead guilty in connection with Perry's death. A second doctor charged in the case, Dr. Mark Chavez, previously agreed to a plea deal. According to Monday's plea agreement, Plasencia admitted to working with Chavez and sold "twenty 5ml vials of ketamine, less than a full package of ketamine lozenges, and syringes," to Perry's personal assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa. Former U.S. attorney for the Central District of California Martin Estrada said at the time he filed charges that Plasencia was looking to make a profit off of Perry and wanted to become his sole supplier. "I wonder how much this moron will pay?" Estrada said Plasencia wrote in September 2023, one month before Perry's death. Iwamasa and Erik Fleming, who according to prosecutors brokered the drug deals, have also pleaded guilty. The fifth defendant, Jasveen Sangha, continues to fight drug dealing charges. Her trial is scheduled for August.

Nasdaq-traded Zoomcar discloses data breach affecting 8.4M users in India
June 16 (UPI) -- Zoomcar, a car-sharing business, has revealed that a hacker accessed the personal data of at least 8.4 million customers in India, according to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC was notified of the data breach because it became a public company in Delaware in late 2023 after a merger with an American blank-check firm IOAC. Its shares are traded on the Nasdaq exchange and the price declined 12.3% Monday. Founded in 2013 by two American men, Zoomcar allows customers to rent cars on a monthly, weekly, daily and hourly basis in 99 cities in India. There are more than 25,000 cars and 10 million users, according to its investor website. The data was accessed on June 9, according to the filing on Friday. Zoomcar, which is based in Bangalore, said it became aware of the incident after some employees received external communications from a threat actor alleging unauthorized access to company data. The company then activated its incident response plan. After a preliminary investigation, the company determined that an unauthorized third party accessed a limited dataset containing certain personal information of a subset of approximately 8.4 million users. It included names, phone numbers, car registration numbers, personal addresses and email addresses associated with such users. The company said there is no evidence that financial information, plaintext passwords or other sensitive identifiers were compromised. Zoomcar said it has implemented additional safeguards across the cloud and internal network. This includes increasing system monitoring and reviewing access controls, according to the SEC filing. Also, the company is working with third-party cybersecurity experts to further assist with the investigation. "The company has also notified the appropriate regulatory and law enforcement authorities and is cooperating fully with their inquiries," the SEC said. In February, Zoomcar reported a 19% increase in car rentals in one year to 103,599 bookings. The company had a net loss of $7.9 million. "To date, the incident has not resulted in any material disruption to the company's operations," the company told Tech Crunch. In 2018, Zoomcar had a data breach that exposed records of more than 3.5 million customers. That data was eventually offered for sale on an underground marketplace in 2020, Bleeping Computer reported. In the United States, car-sharing businesses are Zipcar, a subsidiary of Avis Budget Group, and Enterprise CarShare, which is part of Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
