Raging 3-alarm fire damages several homes in Camden

CAMDEN, New Jersey (WPVI) -- Firefighters battled a three-alarm fire in Camden, New Jersey on Friday night.

The fire broke out around 10 p.m. on the 600 block of Ware Street.

Video obtained by Action News shows firefighters working to control the raging flames.

Four homes were destroyed by the flames and another suffered minor damage.

Officials tell Action News that one of the four damaged residences was occupied.

"I heard the fire crackling through my bedroom walls. So my husband was like, 'Let's go. Just grab something and let's get out of here.' But I don't have anything. My whole house is gone," said Tamika Ross who was sleeping when the blaze broke out.

No injuries have been reported, but officials say nine people are displaced.

"The fire is still in the investigation. The homeowners that were displaced are being supported by Red Cross. The fifth home suffered minor damage from smoking and water," the fire chief told Action News.

More information on the blaze is expected to be released on Monday.
