Two Hurt, Four Families Displaced After Apartment Fire in Spencer



Four families must now find a new place to live after a fire ripped through their apartment building in Spencer.

As bad as it was, those who were there say it had the potential to be much worse.

More than 50 firefighters from ten departments battled the blaze, Saturday night.

A fire in a back apartment spread to other rooms, sending two people to the hospital and displacing four families.

Of the two people that were hurt, one had first and second degree burns to his hands and face. 

The other, an elderly man, suffered smoke inhalation.
