Firefighters in San Jose confronted multiple fires at once in an east San Jose neighborhood Sunday evening.
The San Jose Fire Department posted on social media at 5:45 p.m. that it was responding to three separate fires near Quimby Road and Sand Point Drive. At 6:30 p.m., the department said six buildings were affected across two residential blocks.
Everyone from each building was evacuated and no injuries were reported, the department said.
NBC Bay Area broadcast footage from a helicopter showing smoke coming from what appeared to be one home or two adjacent homes, and another house in a different block across a four-lane street. Zoomed-in video showed flames erupting through a home’s roof with a fire department ladder truck beside it.
The fire department tweeted photos of two ladder trucks pouring water onto a burning structure.
