Car Erupts in Flames in Possible Arson in Miami-Dade

Officials are investigating whether a car fire that happened early Tuesday in southwest Miami-Dade was set intentionally.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue received a call at around 1 a.m. about the fire near Southwest 102nd Avenue and 157th Terrace.

Footage from the scene shows a white vehicle, parked in the driveway of a home, engulfed in flames. Firefighters were able to quickly extinguish the fire.

Investigators are looking into the possibility of arson, due to reports from a neighbor who said he saw a car drive away from the scene as soon as the fire started.

Someone was inside the house at the time of the fire, but there were no reported injuries.
