Fire-Rescue News

        NBC40 Video

ATLANTIC CITY -- One adult and three children are relocated tonight, after a mattress fire broke out on the top floor of a four-story building in Atlantic City.

It happened just before 5 p.m. in the unit block of N. Brighten Ave.

Fire officials say they were on the scene within three minutes and had the blaze under control after 15 minutes.

Officials say upon arrival, black heavy smoke could be seen billowing out of the top story and officials escorted several residents out of the building immediately. Crews also said the building was fully occupied, possibly even overcrowded.

There's severe damage to the front room of the fourth floor and water damage to the lower floors. Officials estimate up to $20,000 total damage.

The fire is still under investigation, but officials say the blaze does appear to be accidental.
