Yesterday early morning, Miami-Dade firefighters fought a warehouse fire near Tropical Park. According to NBC Miami, the fire broke out at SW 40th Street and SW 75th Avenue, and teams quickly responded to tackle it.
Firefighters worked hard to extinguish the blaze as smoke poured from the building, confirmed by MDFR and initially reported by Local 10. Rescue crews arrived at 5 a.m. to respond quickly, and no injuries were reported during the incident.
The cause of the fire is still being investigated. An event production company, one of four businesses using the space, shared their concerns with NBC6. They are set to host an event for the Live Like Bella Childhood Cancer Foundation later that day and are praying their equipment is unharmed.
After firefighters subdued the fire, the building was ventilated, and by around 7 a.m., the flames were out. Roads reopened for Miami-Dade's commuters, while police were on the scene to ensure safety and maintain order in the community.
