NORFOLK, Va. — Norfolk firefighters spent the early morning hours battling a massive apartment fire in the 400 block of Delaware Avenue.
Crews were called to the scene around 3:05 a.m.
An eyewitness photo shows flames engulfing all three stories, including the stairs, of the apartment building.
That's the condition the building was in when firefighters got there - officials said the whole front side of the building was burning.
