The Miami CBS affiliate just interrupted regular programming to say there's a fire at MIA, Concourse B, Gate 2.
I'm sure further information will follow.

Apparently, it turned into kind of a non-story. The fire was in a commissary for airline employees, so no passengers were affected. A couple of planes had to be moved from their gates when the firefighters came in to battle the fire, but it was under control within minutes and then extinguished shortly after. WFOR did get some live pictures, but no flames were visible. Just some smoke pouring out onto the tarmac and a lot of emergency vehicles.
No injuries. I haven't seen a damage report.

Thanks for the heads up. It sounds as though, luckily, nobody was hurt and there wasn't extensive property damage.
