Early Morning Fire In Dallas Sends Families Scrambling



Fire investigators are looking for the cause of this morning's 3-alarm apartment fire in East Dallas.
Thick black smoke could be seen for miles.  The fire at the complex near I-30 and Ferguson broke out at about 8:00 A.M. this morning, damaging at least 8 units and sending people like Desiree Diaz scrambling to escape.  She says that she didn't even have time to grab her cats.
They lost just about everything, but firefighters did save the kittens.  Everyone made it out, but one firefighter was treated after complaining of dizziness.  Diaz says she never heard the smoke detector.
