BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - A three-alarm fire at the Liberty House lofts at the corner of Morris Ave and 23rd St North in downtown Birmingham has been contained. The fire broke out just after 3 p.m. Thursday afternoon.

The building is a four story building. Three stories are lofts with up to 20 apartments. About 45 Birmingham firefighters are currently engaged in fighting the blaze, which is contained to the elevator shaft and roof.

23-year-old L.J. Henderson said that she was sitting on her bed nursing her son River when she heard what sounded like rain on her skylight. She moved quickly from the bed just as the skylight caved in on her bed and her son's crib.

"If I would have waited one more second, it would have come down on me," Henderson told AL.com.

She said she woke up her husband who was asleep downstairs and grabbed her camera and her child. Her husband grabbed his computer, and they fled the building.

"Our bed, his crib, everything was on fire," she said.

The fire was contained around 4 p.m.
