(AP) NORCROSS, Ga.

A fire that ripped through more than dozen units of a Norcross condominium complex left twenty residents homeless.

Gwinnett County Fire Capt. Tommy Rutledge said 16 units at the Olde Mill Crossing condominiums received heavy smoke, water or heat damage in Tuesday afternoon's blaze.

He said the fire call was received at about 4:30 p.m. It took 60 firefighters more than two hours to put out the flames.

There were no injuries and the American Red Cross was called to assist the families who were displaced.

Investigators are trying to determine how it started.
