Large fire caused as car crashes into apartment building in Highland Park
A car crashed into an apartment building, and both went up in flames Friday night.
The massive fire happened at the Manchester Place apartments on 2nd Avenue. Witnesses say a vehicle slammed into the building, igniting the blaze.
"I was told it is a vehicle over here that ran into the structure," said a Highland Park fire official. "And possibly hit a gas line because it went up immediately.
"We have evacuated the structure but we have major damage."
