At 5:38 a.m. on Tuesday, May 23, Miami-Dade Fire Rescue (MDFR) responded to a fire at a public storage facility near NW 167 Street & NW 34 Block. Fire crews arrived to find a light haze and fire coming from the rear of the facility. Crews immediately began a fire attack, attacking the fire which had spread to multiple storage units. Firefighters utilized hydraulic tools to access storage units affected by the blaze to work on extinguishing the fire. Units are fighting the fire from multiple angles including the interior and the roof of the structure. Due to the need for additional manpower, the incident was upgraded to a Second Alarm.
Over 30 MDFR units responded to stop the lateral spread of the fire and placed the fire under control. There were no reported injuries and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
