Flash flood warnings prompt evacuations for some Globe and Miami communities
GLOBE, AZ (AZFamily) — Some Gila County residents are being advised to evacuate due to severe weather and flash flooding in the area.
The Gila County Division of Emergency Management said the following areas are now on “GO” status:
- Little Acres Mobile Home Park
- Miami Gardens
“In the event of a National Weather Service flash flood warning, we strongly reccomend that residents of Miami Gardens and Little Acres Mobile Home Park evacuate the area immeditaley to seek higher ground until the weather subsides,” the county said in a social media post Sunday night.
The following areas are on “SET” status:
- Little Acres
- Residences along Russell Road (Near Russell Gulch)
- Wheatfields
There is a flash flood warning in effect until midnight.
Communities in Globe and Miami are still trying to recover from deadly flooding a few weeks ago when they were hit with fresh flood damage after more storms Sunday.
The latest downpour caused water to overflow bridges and created additional structural concerns in Globe, where some buildings remain off-limits due to instability from previous water damage.
Globe Mayor Al Gameros saw the flooding firsthand. “We stood there while it was coming over, and we kept backing up as it was coming to us,” he said. “We had a business down there that didn’t do a lot of sandbagging, and the water was up to about calf level.”
Despite the new flooding, preparedness measures helped minimize damage in many areas. Gameros said that many businesses took proactive steps this time around.
“A lot of the businesses down here went ahead and sand bagged a lot of their areas and there’s no damage, no mud in these buildings that we can see at this point so that really helped a lot,” he said.
In nearby Miami, residents also dealt with overflowing washes. Miami resident Jared Brown said the flooding “could have been a lot more damage but everybody prepared with sand bags but there is still a lot of mopping and cleaning up.”
Officials said engineers will return to assess structural damage before allowing access to restricted zones in Globe. The communities said that while Sunday’s storm could have been worse, there is still a lot of recovery work ahead.

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A 12-year-old girl was shot in the arm after gunfire erupted in a northwest Miami-Dade neighborhood early Tuesday morning, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said they responded just before 1 a.m. to the area of Northwest 64th Street and Northwest 21st Avenue in the county’s Gladeview area, where they found three vehicles struck by gunfire, including a silver Hyundai.
“The car was parked outside of the residence. It was occupied by three juveniles, so it was the girl and her two siblings that were in the vehicle. The mom was outside of the vehicle at the time, so this could have been a very different outcome,” MDSO Detective Samantha Choon said.
Authorities said Miami-Dade Fire Rescue medics transported the girl to a nearby hospital in stable condition.
A family member of the victim told Local 10’s Jackie Pascale that the girl is now home and doing OK.
They said neither her siblings nor their mother was injured in the shooting.
According to investigators, no arrests have been made, and detectives have not released any suspect information at this time.
Neighbor Marie Grimes said she was shaken after hearing multiple gunshots.
“I heard the booms — boom, boom, boom, boom — and I said, ‘Oh my God, what’s happening?’” she said. “Maybe five or six, ’cause look at that right there. I’m just glad the little girl is OK.”
Investigators asked neighbors to check their surveillance or Ring camera footage from around 1 a.m. and contact authorities with any information.
Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477. Anonymous tips are accepted.

Three people were hurt after a building caught fire on Lincoln Road on Sunday, according to authorities.
The Miami Beach Fire Department said it was working a fire near 230 Lincoln Road.
The flames had spread from a fire in a manhole that “ignited an FPL vault of an adjacent building,” officials said.
Three people were taken to Mount Sinai Medical Center with minor injuries.
The building was evacuated, and FPL has shut off power to the surrounding area, the fire department said.
Drivers were asked to avoid the area of Collins Avenue between 16th and 17th streets while crews worked the scene.
