正文文本
Just a mile from the US capital, a terrifying fast-moving four alarm fire at a senior living apartment complex. Firefighters battling flames on the upper two floors of a five-story building and rescuing hundreds of residents. It started just after 3:30 and spread fast.
Somebody knocked on the door. Get out! Get out! Fire! Fire! Fire! Let's go! Get out now! Get out now! But no sprinklers went off. No. Nothing went off. As flames broke through the roof, fast-acting Marines from the nearby navy yard rushed through the gates with wheelchairs to help with rescues. You heard people banging on door say, "It's a fire! Get out! It's a fire!" Tonight DC fire rescue says every resident was evacuated safely.

就在距美国首都一英里的地方，一处高级住宅楼发生了一场可怕的四级火灾，火势迅速蔓延。一栋五层楼房最高的两层楼起火，消防员灭火并救出了数百名居民。3:30刚过，火灾开始，并且传播得很快。有人敲门。出来！出来！着火了！着火了！着火了！快走吧！快出来！快出来！但洒水装置没有开启，没有。什么都没开启。当火焰冲破屋顶时，附近海军基地的海军陆战队队员们行动迅速，推着轮椅冲进大门，帮助救援。你听到有人敲门说:“着火了！快出来！着火了！”今晚，华盛顿消防队称所有居民都已安全撤离。
