One Dead, One Critical in Miami-Dade Trailer Incident

A welfare check at a trailer in rural southwest Miami-Dade County early Thursday was prompted by an employer's concern and a strong odor coming from the trailer. Deputies arrived around 12:45 a.m. near Southwest 204th Avenue and 232nd Street, finding one person dead and another critically injured. Authorities observed an unconscious man through a bedroom window and transported the surviving individual to Jackson South Medical Center. Hazmat teams responded due to the odor, but no hazardous chemicals were detected. The Miami-Dade Homicide Bureau is leading the investigation, and the cause of death is pending the medical examiner's report. The incident has unsettled the local community as the investigation continues.
