An fire broke out in a multi-family home on Jackson Rd. at approximately 3:00 a.m. Monday morning.

A second floor resident of the building, Chris Jeffrey-Paul, reportedly noticed the blaze and alerted other residents of the three-story home, who evacuated the building with no injuries reported.

Firefighters reportedly responded immediately and brought the fire under control without incident.

Preliminary reports suggest that a car fire spread to the building, which then began to spread to a neighboring building as well.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation by authorities.

    God bless the Somerville fire fighters. Consider the close proximity of the homes so close together they did a great job in stopping the fire from spreading further. Yet the zoning allows for such construction is mindboggling.

    Extremely thankful too for the firefighters out in California – God bless them in their efforts to protect people from these terrible acts of God.
