Firefighters made dozens of rescues this morning, from a burning three story apartment building in the Chicago's Chatham neighborhood.Thankfully no one was hurt and five were taken to area hospitals. The main thing was that people were saved.
The fire broke out around 1:00 a.m., in the 7900 block of South Ellis.
It started in a basement apartment, but quickly spread to the upper floors.
Firefighters used ladders to bring those residents to safety.
