BOSTON, Massachusetts — The Boston Fire Department said 32 adults, 16 kids, and multiple pets are displaced following a seven-alarm fire that burned five multi-family homes in Dorchester on Wednesday.
Three firefighters and one civilian were hospitalized with what are believed to be minor injuries, according to NEWS CENTER Maine's media partners at NECN.
The Boston Fire Department said 150 firefighters battled the blaze, which started on Fayston Street. NECN reports the fire then spread to Mascoma Street and Quincy Street before it was extinguished.
"Quick decisions made by the command staff provided the resources we needed to contain the fire," the department said in a tweet.
