Huge Apartment Fire in Southwest Houston - 07-29-2005, 10:58 AM




An apartment complex not far from my house on W. Bellfort @ Pembridge had a huge fire this morning. Luckily, as I'm writing this, it appears to be under control.

Doesn't look to good for people in the complex...I hope people were able to get out of there! :o

You posted at 11:14 and you just got up? I want your job! (Seriously, I do. I'm just not a good enough photographer.)

Apparently, this fire was started because an unsupervised child was playing around with a lighter.
