JERSEY CITY, N.J. (CBSNewYork) – A New Jersey family narrowly escaped a fire Sunday in Jersey City.
Crews were called to the three-alarm fire on Bayview Avenue some time Sunday evening.
One man said the situation unfolded so quickly, the family only had one way out.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
