I hope not either since losing a home by fire is bad news for the residences involved.

There's a reason they call firefighters the city's bravest.

It's nice they have a temporary housing. I'm glad they escaped and I wish the injured ones a quick recovery. I'm sure someone accidentally caused the fire.

I am sure that the cause of the fire will be ruled an accident.

That's a lot of firefighters. The fire must have looked dangerous for the residents, so it was good that they were all gotten out pretty much ok.

That is true that the fire was huge if there were many firefighters involved to put out a fire.
