Firefighters respond to Related Group’s Casamar gallery

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. – Firefighters responded to a fire at a luxury real estate sales office on Saturday night in Pompano Beach. Witnesses reported hearing a loud explosion.

The fire was at the Related Group’s Casamar gallery in the area of North Ocean Boulevard and Northeast Ninth Street.

“I could see just this huge red glow of fire going up into the sky,” said Tina Moon, who lives nearby.

Moon said she first smelled the smoke and heard a bunch of people outside. She said they believed a transformer had exploded during the fire.

Investigators had yet to confirm this. Pompano Beach Fire Rescue personnel were still at the scene of the fire on Sunday morning.

Detectives asked anyone with information about this or other cases to call Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-8477.
