"We do believe that speed could be a factor, it is still too early in the investigation and we're investigating it to see if that played any role in the accident," he told NBC Miami. Five people were inside the duplex at the time of the incident, according to the source, and a man and a woman in a bedroom were sent to a nearby hospital with minor injuries. "What woke me up is the wall when it dropped on me I was sleeping. I just woke up and then I see the fire," According to Jackner Surlin, who lives at the house, told NBC Miami. "And I got out of the house and I see the car that broke the wall and had the fire in it."
