A large building fire at a multi-family home early Monday afternoon on Catell Street in Bangor displaced five residents, according to a local emergency dispatcher and the American Red Cross Northern New England.
But no injuries were initially reported in the fire, which was reported around 2 p.m. and drew dozens of firefighters from multiple area departments. The fire did serious damage to the structure, but it appeared to be under control by 3 p.m. The structure was still standing, but appeared to have damage to the roof.
The building appeared to be divided into multiple units at 16 and 18 Catell Street. Catell Street is just off Main Street near the Interstate 395 interchange.
Red Cross volunteers are working with the residents to make sure they have food and shelter, the organization said Monday night.
