A family was displaced after an early Saturday fire at a duplex in the 1800 block of E. Randall Street.
Firefighters were called about 1 a.m. to the side-by-side duplex and arrived to heavy smoke and flames. The fire was primarily contained to an unoccupied unit. The family who lived in the other unit was safely evacuated and provided shelter by the Red Cross.
Firefighters attacked the blaze from the outside using aerial platforms from above due to the size of the fire and its associated heat.
Firefighters say damage was significant, though no dollar estimate was available. The cause of the fire wasn't immediately determined.
