MIAMI (WSVN) - Several South Florida first responders were honored for their devotion to service in the aftermath of the partial condominium collapse in Surfside.
The Miami-Dade Fire Rescue employees were recognized in a ceremony held at loanDepot Park in Miami, Saturday morning.
Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava delivered a heartwarming speech about the honorees and their work last summer.
