6:15 am Fire Fighters still hard at work soaking the building with 4 fire truckers in massive amounts of water from the hoses.

Dozens of people have been displaced after fire razed an apartment building in Vancouver on Thursday night, keeping crews at the scene dousing flames into Friday morning.

The fire at Prince Edward Street and East 10th Avenue broke out around 8:30 p.m., sparking on the third floor, according to Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services.

Three people and a dog were rescued from balconies facing the alley. While all human occupants from more than 40 units escaped safely, some pets were stuck in the building overnight.

While resident Michael McKay got his cat back, it was unclear Friday whether all animals were so lucky.
