Horrifying doorbell camera footage shows the moment a wife was blown up by her husband in a car, burning her body beyond recognition.
The vehicle was seen in the shocking clip being turned into a raging fireball after it exploded on Saturday morning in Hialeah Gardens, Florida.
Cops probing the blast say Noel Ruiz-Mestre, 50, was behind the explosion and deliberately set off a homemade bomb while his unnamed wife was in the car.
The couple had just had an argument, with Ruiz-Mestre allegedly storming out of the vehicle and tossing a bomb inside.
In footage of the aftermath captured by NBC Miami, crews could be seen tackling the inferno, as well as propping up privacy sheets as they found the woman’s remains.
Investigators probing the incident say the couple had got into a fight and the woman tried to escape the vehicle, before Ruiz-Mestre set it alight.
Ruiz Mestre is said to have made his way out before using a homemade explosive to cause the explosion, according to the outlet .
Rescue crews raced to the scene and found the woman, who has not yet been identified, in the front passenger seat and ‘burned beyond recognition’.
According to police, Ruiz-Mestre called 911 after he stabbed himself in the stomach several times.

For the death of his wife, Ruiz-Mestre is facing second-degree murder and arson charges. He is currently in hospital due to his knife wounds.
Neighbor Miguel Hernandez told the outlet that the noise from the explosion was incredibly loud and described Ruiz-Mestre as ‘really strange’.
He said: ‘I get up, and I was like, “what’s happening?” Because the explosion was too, too, too loud.
‘It was not a “pow pow” it was “bah bah”. She was a real nice person. She always says, hello, how are you, happy Christmas, happy Halloween.’
Hernandez continued: ‘The guy was a little quiet, you know. He usually took a chair and sit in front of the house. He [did] nothing, I don’t know, he was really strange.’
Further details on why the wife was unable to escape the car before it exploded have not yet been shared.
It also remains clear what kind of explosives Ruiz-Mestre was able to deploy to cause such a devastating blast.
The murder comes after a young woman died after crashing her Tesla into a guardrail which then exploded.
The incident happened in New York City earlier this month, when the 26-year-old driver flipped the electric vehicle after a high-speed collision.
The car burst into flames and ejected the young woman and her passenger, a 26-male. She was pronounced dead at the scene while her passenger survived.
