Seventy people were displaced and three people -- including two firefighters -- received minor injuries from a fire overnight at the Miracle Manor Apartments in west Toledo, according to TFRD Fire Chief Allison Armstrong. The fire has been put out and the injured firefighters have been released. The flames affected three buildings and approximately 24 units, the Toledo Fire and Rescue Department said. According to the TFRD, firefighters were able to get ahead of the fire by placing a trench cut and stopping it from moving into the third building. A roof partially collapsed from the flame at the building on Jamison Drive off of West Laskey Road. Ten TFRD crews responded to the scene. Only one of the buildings was damaged, Armstrong said. The fire crews on the scene had to move water lines to fight the fire, which did not impact the residents' drinking water. The leasing office at the apartments is nearly destroyed, according to security with Miracle Manor.
