MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. (WSVN) - A fire forced a family of five out of their Miami Gardens home.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units responded to the scene of the blaze at a house near Northwest 190th Terrace and 19th Avenue, at around 4 p.m., Friday.
Photographs taken by crews captured smoke pouring out of the roof while firefighters surrounded the property.
Officials said the fire ignited in a shed attached to the rear of the house and then spread to a small area of the home, causing significant smoke damage.
Crews pulled a hose line and were able to put out the flames.
Investigators believe the blaze may have started after the homeowner forgot to turn off a grill.
All five people inside the house got out safely.
The Red Cross will be providing temporary assistance to the family.
