Firefighters work at the scene of a fire in a three-story residential building on the corner of West 21st Street and South Wolcott Avenue in Pilsen on Sunday.
An intense fire that broke out early Sunday morning in the Pilsen neighborhood sent 21 residents fleeing their homes, according to local officials.
The blaze was first reported around 1:40 a.m. at a three-story residential building located at 1900 W. 21st St., officials said. Upon arrival, firefighters discovered flames spreading across all three floors of the building’s stairwell, as reported by Chicago Fire Department Assistant Deputy Commissioner Mark Nielsen.
Several residents were evacuated by emergency crews, while a factory worker across the street used a forklift to assist a man in jumping from a second-floor window, according to both fire officials and eyewitnesses.
Although the main fire was contained to the third floor, it managed to reach the cockloft, allowing the flames to spread into an adjacent apartment building. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, and authorities are working with residents to determine the extent of the damage.
