The Fire Dept chief said that at least 50 people were displaced due to the fire, but they have the situation under control now.
He added that “We were faced with extremely heavy fire conditions immediately on arrival, along with reports of people still inside,”
“Fortunately, all of the occupants were able to escape the fire,” he said. “If this fire was earlier in the morning when people may have still been asleep, the outcome could have easily been tragic.”
