At least six people are without a home Monday morning following a large fire at an apartment building in Fayetteville, according to a report from the Fayetteville Fire Department.
The fire was reported at approximately 2:30 a.m. at a home that had been converted into apartments in the 1500-block of Fort Bragg Road, officials said.
First arriving fire units reported a structure fire with “a large volume of fire visible on arrival,” the report stated. A working fire was declared and multiple additional units were called to the scene.
The fire took just short of 25 minutes to get under control, according to fire officials.
Fayetteville PWC has been called in to shut down power to the building while fire crews continue to perform salvage and overhaul operations, officials said.
