JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) - A fast-moving fire roared through two multifamily homes in northern New Jersey early Wednesday, displacing at least 10 people but causing no injuries.
The fire in Jersey City was reported around 3:25 a.m., authorities said. Emergency responders found heavy flames and thick smoke coming from the structures, but firefighters were able to bring the fire under control in about an hour.
A preliminary investigation found the fire apparently started in one of the homes and soon spread across a narrow alleyway to the second home. Three vehicles also caught fire.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
