Over sixty people are left without a place to call home after a fire ripped through an apartment building in Manchester Thursday.
This all unfolded on Buckland Hills Drive around 1:30 in the afternoon.
Fire officials say they encountered heavy flames when they first arrived on scene and later signaled for a fourth alarm, which requires additional aid from surrounding departments.
At some point, some of the floors inside the multi-unit building had collapsed. Crews were on scene for several hours working to put out the flames.
