VIDEO: A two-alarm fire that forced evacuations in the Chinatown section of Philadelphia is under control, though firefighters remain on the scene.
The fire broke out around 2 a.m. Tuesday at 10th and Race streets. It was placed under control around 6:15 a.m.
There is a fire station on the block and firefighters arrived at the scene soon after the flames started.
Arriving crews evacuated the building, which is made up of five apartment units and a business, Lucky Market, on the ground floor.
Philadelphia Fire Captain Derrick Bowmer said the roof of the building partially collapsed around 4:15 a.m., after residents had already been evacuated. Fire crews moved back in case of further collapse.
Burning embers were flying leading crews to be concerned about the fire spreading.
