Surveillance video shows gunmen approach Florida concert venue before shooting

[NYPOST] Surveillance video released by cops Monday shows three suspected button men hop out of a white SUV, carrying rifles and a handgun, seconds before they shot up a crowd outside a concert, killing two people and wounding 21 others.
They're only "suspected" gunmen, despite lugging all that weaponry around.
The trio of button men, wearing masks and hoods, emerge from the front passenger-side door, as well as the back seat, and run toward the crowd, the footage shows.
Leaving the getaway driver waiting, as tradition demands.
Two of the shooters were carrying long guns while the third had a handgun, according to the footage.
Oh, noze! Not AR15 semiautomatic assault weapons!
They might even be the full semiautomatic assault weapons
Seconds later, the three suspects scramble back to the waiting SUV, which then speeds off and turns the corner, disappearing from view of the surveillance camera, the footage shows.
I'm guessing the surveillance camera got a better image of the license plate than the picture from the Post.
The button men targeted the crowd at the El Mula Banquet Hall in northwest Miami-Dade County as people gathered for a rap concert at the venue soon after midnight Sunday, police said.

Two people were killed and more than 20 were maimed as the trio of shooters sprayed the crowd with bullets.

Miami-Dade Police Department Director Alfredo "Freddy" Ramirez III said the button men appeared to fire randomly into the crowd — but they had targeted the venue.

"These are cold-blooded murderers that shot indiscriminately into a crowd and we will seek justice. My deepest condolences to the family of the victims," he told CBS.

The chief of police of the Miami Police Department, Art Acevedo, added that the shooting is part of a "scourge" of gun violence across America.
But it’s commonplace during Urban Beach Week/Black Beach Week in that part of the world.

Said it before, but bears saying as often as it happens.

These shootings oddly seem to happen more frequently when the Socialist-Democrats are in either congressional control or own the system and trying to force over the top GUN controls or bans on Lawful US Citizens.

#8 Long Gun. Assault Rifles.
I see something closer to TEC-9

Concert Venue.
Not Rapper Gang vs. Rapper Gang.

#9 ^Then, how do you explain 2 killed/21 wounded?

#10 Dudes on the right aren't wearing gloves; should be some partial prints somewhere in the car, unless it was completely submerged in the canal.

#11 Picture is shitty, but a TEC-9, AB-10, type weapon in a pistol caliber illegally modified to auto and capacity mags, x2, could cause that much damage in that short amount of time. If you need a Jack Reacher scenario, pistol guy was to target a specific sentry or security in general.

If the location photos found are correct, The Magic Mushroom, featuring The Smoke N Toke room, this is more pool hall and drug lounge then concert venue, which suggests a VIP that evening was a local famous rapper.

The get out and go shown by this well rehearsed team suggests decent opposition so one mag and out.

Wounded is a confusing term, and includes gunshot ER to an EMT examining superficial cuts and scrapes.

#13  Courtesy of PJ Media:

Monday [was] the culmination of “Urban Beach Week,” sometimes called “Black Beach Week,” an annual hip-hop event with roughly 300,000 people in attendance. Past events have seen tremendous violence and hundreds of arrests.
