Crews respond to southwest Miami-Dade apartment fire affecting ‘multiple units’

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – Miami-Dade Fire Fescue crews were at the scene of a large fire Friday at an apartment complex in the southwestern part of the county.

Crews responded to 27102 SW 128th Ave. just before 11:40 a.m., MDFR records show. The complex is located north of the Homestead Air Reserve Base and east of Florida’s Turnpike.

The fire was considered a second-alarm blaze with multiple units involved, officials said Friday afternoon. Crews were working a defensive attack in order to keep the flames from spreading to additional units, they said.

Video from Sky 10 showed significant damage; the fire appears to have burned through a large portion of the building’s roof.

It’s unclear if anyone was hurt.
