An early morning fire in Southern Pines has left several occupants in temporary housing. Firefighters were dispatched to an outside fire at 5:59 a.m. Saturday to the apartments at 135 Murray Hill Road. Due to Southern Pines Fire Department being on a different call at the same time, Aberdeen Fire & Rescue were also dispatched to the scene. Once they arrived, the call was upgraded to a structure fire, sending more resources to the location.
