MEMPHIS, Tenn. --- An apartment fire in Whitehaven has left at least two families without a home Saturday night. Lakeshia Hardrick says at around 6 pm her home at Turning Pointe Apartments on Millbranch Road went up in flames. She says she had to rush her children to safety, and now they're left with nothing. “I went in the kitchen and then I heard my 6-year-old say 'Mom, I see some flames,'" Hardrick said. "I went out of the kitchen into the living room and the hallway. I was about to turn the door, but I saw the flames and smoke, and I said hell no and got out of there.” One dead after Nutbush electrical fire Hardrick says she warned her landlord about a hazardous situation in her home three days in a row, but he repeatedly delayed taking action. “For two or three days, I've been telling the landlord," Hardrick said. "First, it was the gas leak, and then it was a hot water tank, and last night I went in the closet trying to cut the breaker box off so nothing would catch on fire and it was hot to the touch. The landlord told me no one will be here until Monday. I can't wait until Monday. Something will happen before then.” Her oldest son D'Marco Hardwick was nearby when he realized his home was on fire.  “I was over my home girl's house and I started seeing fire trucks," he said. "Something told me to call my mom because she was already saying the stove was catching on fire.” He says he was in shock to see the blaze and devastated by the loss of everything they owned. “It was scary for me because I didn't know if they got out or not, but my mom said she was okay," D'Marco said. "My whole room is on fire. My whole room caught on fire. Everything in there is burnt. Shoes, clothes, everything." Downstairs, a neighbor's apartment is now flooded with water, forcing them to move out. “It's real bad water damage from them spraying all their water upstairs leaking down," the neighbor said. "My living room, my bedroom, bathroom, all of that is flooded.” WREG made contact with the landlord, who referred us to the fire department. So far, the Memphis Fire Department has not said how the fire started.
