Last night, a blaze tore through a three-story apartment block on the 2200 block of Miramar Avenue in San Leandro, leading the Alameda County Fire Department to initiate a 2nd Alarm response quickly. The fire, reported at about 11:19 PM, saw firefighters bravely combating the flames to prevent further spread. One individual had to be transported to a nearby hospital due to respiratory issues from the blaze, as the fire forced three residents to abruptly find refuge elsewhere, as reported in a Facebook post by the fire department.

Despite the intense fire that ravaged the apartment complex, the Alameda County Fire Department's personnel managed to avoid personal injury. Determining the cause is still underway, with the fire crews scrutinizing the ashes to uncover what may have sparked the dangerous fire. This response showcased the readiness of the firefighters and highlighted their ability to quickly and effectively control a volatile situation, as captured in images shared by Sumodog/ACFD and footage by Chris Matthews.

As the community grapples with the aftermath of the fire, local efforts are mustered to support the displaced residents during this challenging period. 

The ACFD has not yet released additional details regarding the status of the hospitalized patient, but updates are expected to follow as the investigation proceeds. Local media and residents are keenly awaiting further information, and the impact of the fire continues to resonate within the San Leandro community. The quick response of the firefighting team stands testament to their commitment to safeguard lives and property, as underscored in the original footage shared by ACFD's Facebook page.
