Firefighters battle massive flames after fire breaks out at Miami quadplex – NBC 6 South Florida


Fire officials are investigating after a quadplex was engulfed in flames in Miami early Friday morning.

According to Miami Fire Rescue, shortly after 4 a.m. Friday, a call was received about reports of a fire in the 3000 block of NW 19th Avenue.

When crews arrived, they found a quadplex on fire with heavy flames coming from the roof, fire officials said.

Video showed massive flames coming from the building as fire crews battled the blaze.

Firefighters began an aggressive attack on the flames and conducted a search for victims.

Within 30 minutes, the fire was under control, all exposures were protected, but because the flames vented through the roof, all four units sustained damage.

The Miami Fire Investigations Unit was requested to determine the origin and cause of the fire. 

At this time, there are no injuries reported.
