According to a report on the Orange County Register, the fire caused the roof of the structure to collapse. Two residents suffered smoke inhalation and were taken to a hospital, and some residents were yet to be accounted for this morning. There were no reported firefighter injuries.
“We had roof collapse in about 24 minutes, which is very quick for a building of this size,” OCFA Captain Tony Bommarito told reporters.
