Video: Four-alarm house fire with exposure problems. Second fire in a month at home.

This is a four-alarm fire on Thursday that damaged or destroyed four homes near 28th Avenue and Kingsway Drive in Vancouver on Thursday. The Vancouver Sun reports this was the second fire at this address in less than a month. Here are excerpts from the article:

By the time firefighters arrived, the house was an "inferno" and had collapsed. The fire had also spread to the neighbouring houses to the east and west of the collapsed house.

(Battalion Chief Rod) MacDonald said fire crews could not enter the first house because it was destroyed, but went into the second house after reports there were people inside.

By that time, a third house had gone up in flames and a fourth also had caught fire.

"At one point, we thought it might spread to six houses," said MacDonald. "It was an intense fire."
