DORAL, Florida – Following nine gunshots on Saturday morning at Miami-Dade County’s CityPlace Doral’s Martini Bar, two investigations were still ongoing on Monday. Thirty minutes before closing, two passed away.

The bar at 3450 NW 83 Ave saw two shootings after three in the morning. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement was looking into the shooting that occurred after police involvement, and the Miami-Dade Police Department was looking into a homicide.

George Alejandro Castellanos was the victim of the murder. He was characterized by his family as a devoted father, the director of security at the pub, and a Florida International University student who wanted to work in law enforcement.

Following a police-involved shot, Jamal Wayne Wood, the person suspected of killing Castellanos, passed away. Two policemen at the bar reportedly fired their rifles, according to Doral Police Chief Edwin Lopez.

The bodies of the two males were in the medical examiner’s office. Wood was 37 and Castellanos was 23. Investigators from the crime scene gathered a Springfield Armory XD.40 pistol and 29 used bullet casings, of which seven were.40 caliber and 22 were 9mm, according to sources with Local 10 News who made the revelation on Sunday.

Investigators surmise that Wood owned the weapon and that he used it in response to a quarrel with a man who broke up with him and an altercation with a lady.

“Why would he own a firearm? The sad younger brother of Castellanos said, “It was for something so not serious.”
