6 Displaced By Townhouse Fire In Pasadena

PASADENA, Md. (AP) -- Authorities say a two-alarm fire has ripped through townhomes in Anne Arundel County, displacing six residents.

Capt. James Rostek, a spokesman for the county fire department, says crews were called to a house fire at 1001 Cutler Harbour around 3:20 a.m. Tuesday. The crews arrived to find two townhouses fully engulfed in flames. Rostek says occupants of the homes escaped unharmed.

Rostek says about 75 firefighters battled the blaze and brought it under control in about an hour.

Investigators are working to determine the cause of the fire.
