"We ran up to the residence, knocked on the bottom door, tried to get everyone out of the bottom house," said Rashad Cisero of Springfield. "It just kind of happened... everything happened so quickly." Rashad and another person were able to escort everyone safely from the backend of the house. The complex has four units with neighbors telling 22News that families and children lived there. The Springfield Arson and Bomb Squad is investigating the cause of the fire.
