A second alarm was called to ensure a quick knockdown of the fire, which was hidden in void spaces, and to guard against high winds that could exacerbate the situation.

The firefighters successfully extinguished the fire in the affected units, and no injuries were reported.

The school owners posted that “To us, A-Team is more than just a school but it’s family. It’s where life lessons are learned and friendships are made. With your donations, we’ll be one step closer to rebuilding our students second home. Thank you for your generosity as it will make a difference. A-Team Strong.”
