Massive Fires Displace Residents in Multiple Cities

A devastating 6-alarm fire broke out at an apartment building in Chelsea, Massachusetts, early Wednesday morning, displacing dozens of residents and leaving some unaccounted for. The blaze required mutual aid from neighboring fire departments and took hours to control, resulting in a partial roof collapse and extensive damage. One person was hospitalized for smoke inhalation. Relief organizations such as the Red Cross and La Colaborativa are providing temporary shelter and assistance. The cause of the fire remains under investigation. In separate incidents, fires in Oakland, California, and Sandy Springs, Georgia, also displaced residents, with the causes still being investigated.
