Twenty-four people were left homeless after a two-alarm fire ripped through a three-story wood-frame building. Seven engines, three ladders and a rescue responded to the mid-afternoon blaze in Manchester, NH, on Aug. 31, 1999.
The fire started in a second-floor apartment and extended to the exterior. The fire then worked its way into the attic and through the roof. One firefighter was injured in the blaze.
