Crews said firefighters were quickly able to get into the building and find everyone. They rescued them through a front window on the first floor. Crews also said multiple pets were also rescued by firefighters.

At the same time, firefighters were on the roof of the building creating vents for the smoke and fire to escape, but due to the compromised structural stability of the building those firefighters had to be pulled off the roof and a collapse zone was established, according to crews.

Lt. Ryan Fleming tells News10NBC this building with four apartments and businesses on the first floor was challenging for firefighters.

"It's a very difficult fire to fight because of the size of the building," Fleming said. "Four apartments in there, businesses on the first floor....very difficult fire to fight right now because it’s in the attic area which is difficult to get to."

All five people and firefighters made it out uninjured. The Red Cross was called to assist the occupants with housing.

The cause of this fire is still under investigation.
