MIAMI (WSVN) - Heavy rain caused a roof collapse in Miami that has led to a road closure.

City of Miami Fire Rescue units responded to a building along the 500 block of North Miami Avenue, at around 1 p.m., Saturday.

Responding units arrived to find debris littering North Miami Avenue from what appeared to be the second floor roof of an abandoned strip mall that had significant damage.

Video showed firefighters as they checked out the extent of the damage.

Officials said the building was unoccupied. The business located next door was evacuated while crews determined whether the entire structure was compromised.

Crews have closed Northwest First Avenue to North Miami Avenue, from Fifth to Sixth streets, while they investigate and clear the debris from the roadway.

Officials urge drivers to avoid the area and seek alternate routes.

No injuries were reported.
