Car Fire Snarls Traffic on NB US-1 in Miami

An early morning car fire snarled traffic on northbound US-1 for much of the early morning hours Friday.

The incident occurred on northbound US-1 at Southwest 17th Avenue in Miami around 5 a.m. Aerial footage showed Miami Police on the scene blocking off a portion of the street as the charred remains of the car were placed on a flatbed truck.

The roads have since been reopened.

It appears that the car slammed into a tree in the median. One person was taken to the hospital. Their condition is not immediately known.

This is a developing story and will be updated as new information becomes available.
