MIAMI – South Floridians are finding ways to stay warm as the cold weather moves in, and that means turning on heaters for the first time in ages. Temperatures in the 40s means South Florida is throwing on those layers. Anyone who decides to turn up the heat should remember to clean out their vents. Captain Ignatius Carroll with Miami Fire and Rescue asked South Floridians to please be careful if they have a space heater or are using their home central air. “What we’ve noticed with space heater is a lot of the time the fires are caused by not properly managing your space heater,” said Capt.

MIAMI – A 2-year-old girl is stable after falling from a fourth floor window of an apartment building in Miami, authorities confirmed. Ignatius Carroll said the toddler was spared significant injuries because a palm tree below the window helped slow down the speed of the fall and the girl landed on shrubs. “This is something that’s a miracle but could’ve easily been a tragedy,” Miami Police Commander Freddie Cruz said. Crime scene detectives are now trying to figure out what led up to the fall and if the little girl’s parents bear any responsibility. “Our investigators are talking to family members to see if there was any negligence and what exactly occurred,” Cruz said.

Mae Frierson lives in one of the units in the multi-family unit along Northwest 4th Court near 69th Street. Her 9-year-old grandson was having dinner when the tree came crashing down and into the apartment and a ceiling fan fell within inches of the boy. Photographs show the weight of the tree as it sent debris flying through the ceiling. “Never underestimate any kind of storm especially when you have strong winds, the rains and a lot of flooding,” Carroll said. Inspectors came out to look at the property and they will return to make sure it is safe for anyone to come back once the storm passes.
