Purple Lamborghini Shooting Outside Pinecrest Strip Club Ends in Felony Arrests After Dawn Dispute
An early morning dispute outside a South Florida gentlemen’s club escalated into gunfire, a police pursuit, and felony arrests after suspects allegedly opened fire on the venue’s front doors before crashing their getaway vehicle into public infrastructure, authorities said.
The incident unfolded around dawn Wednesday at Stir Crazy in Pinecrest, where police say multiple shots were fired following an argument over money spent inside the establishment. Officers responding to the scene later arrested two men they identified as the driver and the alleged shooter.
Gunfire Erupts After Club Dispute
According to Pinecrest Police, an officer in the area first heard approximately five gunshots and responded to the club, where surveillance footage captured a purple Lamborghini parked outside with four individuals nearby. Video showed one person banging on the club’s door before retrieving what appeared to be a firearm from the vehicle. As the Lamborghini began backing away, several rounds were fired toward the entrance.
“It was a dispute over money… they had spent some money in the establishment and didn’t feel they received the service for what they spent,” said Pinecrest Police Chief Jason Cohen.
Authorities said no injuries were reported despite the shots striking the club’s doors.
Police Pursuit Ends in Crash
After officers arrived, the Lamborghini fled northbound along US1, prompting a brief pursuit that ended when the vehicle crashed into a human waste pumping station near Southwest 124th Street and 94th Avenue. All four occupants were taken into custody. During the subsequent investigation, police recovered a firearm along U.S.-1 believed to be connected to the shooting.
Two individuals, including a minor, were later released.
Felony Charges Filed
Police identified the driver as Ricardo Hadam, 28, who faces charges including aggravated assault, attempting to elude law enforcement, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Wandy Rodriguez, 35, was identified as the alleged shooter and is charged with firing a deadly missile, disorderly conduct, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Authorities say the investigation remains ongoing as detectives continue reviewing surveillance footage and evidence tied to the incident. The episode adds to a string of volatile overnight incidents across Miami-Dade County involving nightlife venues, luxury vehicles, and firearms, underscoring ongoing concerns about late-night security, alcohol fueled disputes, and reckless displays of status turning into real public-safety threats on South Florida streets.
