At least one building had to be evacuated.
An eyewitness to the fire describes waking up to a chaotic scene.
"I was actually sleeping when it happened but my sister came up and she was yelling, 'there's a fire, there's a fire.' So, my first instinct, like every other person, I was already fully clothed so I just jumped out of bed and started running," a resident said.
The fire was placed under control shortly after.
No word on what caused the fire.
There were no reported injuries.
