Connecticut Firefighters Hurt in Blaze

Three firefighters were hospitalized Sunday when they were injured while fighting a two-alarm fire in Hartford.

The blaze started at about 12:30 p.m.

Flames leapt off the three-story apartment building on Monroe Street.

One person inside was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, along with the three firefighters.

No other buildings were reported damaged, though a fire official said buildings in the area are built very close together.

Eleven people displaced by the fire will need to find new homes.
