Two cats were rescued — one by a quick-thinking teenager — during a fire this afternoon in North Long Beach.
The blaze sparked shortly before 2:10 pm at a two-story apartment building on Atlantic Avenue just north of the 91 Freeway, said Long Beach Fire Department spokesperson Jack Crabtree.
Crews arrived to find heavy smoke and flames coming from three cars on the first floor of the apartment building, which is underneath second-floor units at the back of the building, Crabtree said.
