Everyone survived the first fire, which broke out at 12:02 a.m. in the 7100 block of South Yates Boulevard.
When police and firefighters arrived on the scene, four people who lived in the building — a woman and three children ages 7, 6, and 3 — were out on the sidewalk. None were injured, but all will need to find somewhere else to stay.
