This is FresnoFireDepartment video from an apartment fire on September 12 at Peach and Olive. The view is from the first arriving company officer aboard Engine 1. This complex appears to be near a three-alarm apartment fire in March. Here’s helmet-cam video from Engine 1 on that fire.
More than half a dozen people were displaced after an apartment fire left a six-unit building without electricity. Firefighters were called to the Villa Margaritas apartments in East Central Fresno just before 2 p.m. Saturday.
The man who started the fire said that he accidentally left his stove unattended. He admits he never should have done that, and while no one was hurt in the blaze he said he would like to apologize to all his neighbors for starting the fire.
It took Fresno firefighters 20 minutes to knock out the fire in this six-unit building. Sixty-year-old Donald William says he feels for his neighbors who did nothing wrong, but have to suffer the consequences of his mistake.
Firefighters say only two unit’s experienced heavy damage, including William’s apartment on the second floor. But the fire burned into the attic, where the building’s electrical wiring runs through.
