Approximately 30 apartments were destroyed in the blaze at the apartment building on Sophee Lane on Friday, fire officials tell TLS.
All residents were displaced, and were assisted in finding a place to stay.
Today, firefighters were back at the building, helping residents sift through their apartments for what remained from their belongings.
The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.

Is there only 1 ladder track in the whole surrounding area? Wouldn’t another saved alot of unnecessary damage here? Just asking
@”dumb”,
There were 2 ladders working this fire. At one point a 3rd ladder was utilized as well.
Unfortunately, there was not a lot of room in front of the building. The building is also narrowly surrounded by grass and woods on 3 sides making it impossible for ladder attacks from all but the front side.
