The fire started around 10 p.m., and thankfully, all of the residents have been accounted for and were not severely hurt. However, most had to leave with just the clothes on their back.
Those residents who used to call American House home are picking up the pieces after losing everything in the fire.
Theyre all elderly so theyre going to need a lot of help," Karen Richardson, the niece of a woman who was at the facility, told us.
