A Hollywood man is in the Broward County Main Jail facing a first-degree murder charge for the homicide of a Lauderhill man on Christmas morning. 

At approximately 12:34 a.m. on Monday, Dec. 25, Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies in unincorporated Central Broward responded to the 2400 block of Northwest Eighth Street after receiving a ShotSpotter alert of multiple shots fired. On scene, deputies located an adult male suffering from gunshot wounds.
