 WASHINGTON (AP) - Fire ravaged an apartment building overnight, forcing the evacuation of several neighboring buildings and damaging a church.
No residents were injured as flames engulfed the four-story building in the city's Mount Pleasant neighborhood, but about 200 people were forced from their homes, authorities said.
Fire department spokesman Alan Etter said the fire broke out shortly before midnight Wednesday and destroyed at least half the building. The cause of the fire was under investigation.
