PLANT CITY, Fla. — The Plant City Police Department is investigating after authorities found a man on fire inside a local grocery store Wednesday evening.
At 6:35 p.m. Wednesday, police responded to a disturbance call at Publix Supermarket, located at 2202 James L. Redman Pkwy in the Walden Woods Shopping Center.
The caller said that a man was on fire inside the store.
Officials said several people within the store worked to extinguish the flames.
Afterward, Plant City Fire Rescue transported the injured person, a 30-year-old man, to a local hospital. Authorities said he is in critical condition.
Back-to-back storm events brought record storm surge, rainfall and winds to the Tampa Bay region. The question some are asking now isn’t where people should rebuild, but where we should let nature regain control.
