Miami-Dade police are searching for a group of people they believe are connected to a man being set on fire Christmas night.
The attack happened about a half hour before midnight on Dec. 25, according to police. Darrell Brackett, 44, had gone to a gas station at 4700 NW 27th Ave. after his van ran out of gas.
But, soon after he bought a small amount of gasoline, witnesses told police they saw him running in the middle of the street, on fire.
Brackett was rushed to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center for treatment. He was still in Jackson on Sunday.
Since the attack, one man, Alex Cineas, 21, of Miramar, came forward and talked to police. No charges were immediately filed. Police are still searching for a second man, Willie Summersett, 29, of Brownsville.
They also are looking for two other people, an unidentified man and woman who might have information about what happened and might have been involved.
Investigators asked anyone with information to call Miami-Dade County Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
