NOTIFICATION FOR REAL TIME UPDATES. NOW TO A DEVELOPING STORY IN SACRAMENTO COUNTY. THIS IS WHAT’S LEFT OF AN APARTMENT COMPLEX. IT WAS DESTROYED IN A FIRE IN NORTH HIGHLANDS, AND TONIGHT DOZENS OF PEOPLE ARE STAYING IN A HOTEL AFTER LOSING EVERYTHING. THE COMPLEX IS ALONG A STREET JUST OFF OF WATT AVENUE AND WEST OF THE CAPITAL CITY FREEWAY. ONE PERSON WAS INSIDE WHEN THIS HAPPENED, DESCRIBING THE MOMENTS BEFORE AND AFTER THE DEVASTATING FIRE. I BLINKED AND I WAS LAYING IN BED AND I BLINKED AND I WAS PUTTING OUT A FIRE. I BLINKED AGAIN AND I WAS GRABBING EVERYBODY OUT OF THE APARTMENT, AND I BLINKED AGAIN. I WAS I WAS KNOCKING ON DOORS AND IT JUST HAPPENED WITHIN MINUTES. THERE IS STILL NO WORD ON EXACTLY WHAT CAUSED THIS FIRE. AND NOW THOSE PEOPLE ARE HAVING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE TO LIVE. KCRA 3’S PEYTON HEADLEE SPOKE WITH SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN IMPACTED. YEAH, WELL, METRO FIRE SAYS THIS FIRE SPREAD VERY QUICKLY AND THAT THE HEAT WAS SO INTENSE IT BROUGHT DOWN POWER LINES, EVEN MELTED CAR’S TAIL LIGHTS THAT WERE PARKED ACROSS THE STREET. AND IT LEFT DOZENS OF PEOPLE WITHOUT A PLACE TO CALL HOME. A LIVING ROOM, THAT’S OUR COUCH. THIS IS WHAT’S LEFT. THAT’S MY KIDS ROOM RIGHT THERE OF NATHANIEL FIGUEROA’S APARTMENT. ATWATER WATER. AFTER IT CAUGHT FIRE LATE TUESDAY NIGHT. I WAS GETTING IN BED AND I HEARD FIRE. HE DIDN’T WANT TO SHOW HIS FACE, BUT SAYS IT STARTED IN A UNIT ON THE FIRST FLOOR. SO HE RAN DOWN TO HELP. I JUMPED UP AND I TURNED AROUND AND I SAID, HEY, YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY GET OUT. HE SAYS HE TRIED PULLING THINGS OUT OF THE APARTMENT THAT WERE BURNING, BUT THE FLAMES MOVED TOO FAST. THIS BUILDING CAUGHT FIRE LIKE THE BACK OF A BOX OF MATCHES. IT WAS LIKE SOMEBODY POURED GASOLINE IN THERE. IT IN A MATTER OF MINUTES, IT WAS GONE. HE SAYS EVERYONE MADE IT OUT OF THE BUILDING. SOME OF THEM BY JUMPING FROM THE SECOND FLOOR BALCONY. BUT IT TOOK MORE THAN 80 FIREFIGHTERS TO PUT OUT THE FLAMES. BUT THE BUILDING IS A TOTAL LOSS. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE AFFECTED BY THIS. A LOT OF PEOPLE. FIGUEROA IS ONE OF 40 RESIDENTS LEFT WITHOUT A HOME OR ANYTHING OF HIS OWN. HONESTLY, HE LOST EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING. I’VE BEEN ON MY OWN SINCE I WAS 12, SO EVERYTHING I GOT TO WORK FOR ALL OVER AGAIN.

WE HAVE NO NOTHING. WE HAVE NO MONEY. WE GOT LUCKY TO HAVE A CAR, I MEAN, AND WE GOT LUCKY TO SAVE OUR LIVES. AND WE REACHED OUT TO THE PROPERTY OWNER THIS EVENING. SHE SAYS THEY HAVE CONFIRMED TWO NIGHTS IN A HOTEL FOR THOSE WHO ARE DISPLACED, AND THAT THEY’RE WORKING ON MORE RESOURCES. RED CROSS SAYS THEY EXPECT TO
