Overview
- A two-alarm blaze broke out on Maple Street in Roxbury and crews evacuated the building after part of the roof caved in.
- Firefighters are fighting the fire from the exterior because the partial roof collapse made interior operations unsafe.
- Eleven people were left without homes, including three adults and eight children, and officials have not yet detailed shelter or relocation plans.
- One resident was injured and transported to a local hospital while authorities say there is no threat to the general public.
- Investigators have not announced a cause, and extended exterior operations will likely delay damage estimates and recovery efforts.
