A large fire in a home in Bay Harbor Islands, in the Miami area, caused moments of tension on Monday as it was visible from various points in the city, with a thick plume of black smoke rising over the area.
The incident was reported near the address 9800 W Bay Harbor Drive, according to the specialized account Only in Dade, which shared images of the fire on social media. In the videos, recorded both from land and from the water, smoke can be seen covering the sky as flames engulf the property.
Emergency teams quickly arrived at the scene and continue to work to control the situation, which remains active. So far, no official details have been provided regarding possible injuries or the causes of the fire.
The images have made a strong impression on residents and users on social media, not only due to the intensity of the fire but also because of its proximity to homes in a typically quiet and exclusive area of South Florida.
The incident again highlights the vulnerability even in high-level areas, where an event of this nature can disrupt the normalcy of an entire community in just minutes.
Authorities are expected to provide more information in the coming hours regarding the extent of the damages and the circumstances that led to the fire.
