Just watched the news. It is really bad. Can't tell how many finished units but I saw at least 6 burned cars and many townhouses. Hope everyone is safe and that it does not directly affect anyone on this board.

I think they are actually townhouses and several of them are burned to the ground, including the cars that were parked outside. Seems like there are three simultaneous fires going on in the Raleigh area right now according to WRAL.

This is a townhouse complex that is on fire off Capitol by Old Buffaloe Rd
This is the apt complex that was on fire on or near New Bern where multiple fatalities have been reported.

Oh no that's so sad Is it unusual for there to be so many fires at the same time? |

Extremely unusual! I don't know what's going on. Apparently, no one is hurt at the townhouses but a family of three is dead at the apt complex. Terribly sad. |

I kept trying to edit my post but it wouldn't let me. What I was trying to get at was...are they suspecting arson?
