Emergency responders were dispatched Sunday, May 31, 2026, at 8:08 PM, to an officer-involved shooting incident near SW 123rd Avenue and SW 49th Court in Cooper City, Florida.

According to emergency dispatch, a single unit, designated R28, responded to the scene. The deployment of a single rescue unit typically indicates a focused medical response, though the nature of an officer-involved shooting suggests a broader law enforcement presence. Responding units for an officer-involved shooting would primarily include law enforcement, with medical assistance standing by.

While dispatch records indicate the incident near SW 123rd Avenue and SW 49th Court, multiple local reports place a Broward Sheriff’s Office deputy-involved shooting within a shopping plaza area on Griffin Road in Cooper City, specifically mentioning a McDonald’s, according to reports. This commercial area location is distinct from the dispatched address. According to reports, the incident followed deputies responding to the 10200 block of Griffin Road for a man who had allegedly shot himself, later attacking a deputy, who then fired his weapon. Reports indicate the man died at the scene, and his mother and the deputy were transported to a hospital with unknown, non-gunshot-related injuries.

Residents are advised to avoid the area and follow any instructions from law enforcement officials. Road closures are common during such incidents to facilitate investigation and ensure public safety.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement typically investigates officer-involved shootings to ensure an impartial review, according to reports. The public can expect updates as official information becomes available from investigating agencies.
