A fire at an apartment complex in East Point leaves eight adults and one child without a place to live.
It took crews about an hour to put out the blaze which started at the Victory Place Apartment Homes shortly after 7 p.m. on Sunday.
Deputy Fire Chief William Ware says, "flames and heat were so bad we had to come back and do a defensive attack."
Wiley tells Channel 2 Action News he went knocking door to door to help get his neighbors out. He also managed to save his dog.
Residents like Malcom Wiley say, "the smoke was too intense so we had to run back out."
Channel 2 Action News reports the two-story brick building was destroyed in the blaze.
Fire investigators say they plan to work into the night to try and figure out what sparked the blaze.
