A man was hospitalized in critical condition and two police officers and a firefighter were also transported to the hospital after a house fire in Little Havana early Thursday.
Firefighters responded to the fire at the house in the 3600 block of Northwest 16th Street just before 12:30 a.m., Miami Fire Rescue officials said.
Once they arrived, the residents informed the crew that a family member was still inside the house.
Firefighters entered the home in search of the victim, a 65-year-old man, who was found in the back of the home on the floor.
The victim, identified by his family as Rogel Escalona, was transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital. He had over 30% of his body with 1st and 2nd degree burns and was in critical condition, authorities said.
