A fire broke out overnight in a home in South Miami-Dade, resulting in a man being hospitalized.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units responded to the scene along Southwest 127th Terrace, near 88th Avenue, just after 11:30 p.m. and encountered heavy smoke.
“Luckily, they were in pretty quick and made access because the house was open already, and they were able to get the fire under control as quick as possible, but it had spread pretty quickly,”
said MDFR Battalion Chief James R Koch. A couple lives in the home, and a woman was seen distraught outside the residence. Paramedics transported her boyfriend to HCA Florida Kendall Hospital.
