HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Firefighters spent most of Wednesday afternoon battling a three-alarm apartment fire in the Galleria-area. The fire started at Courtyard Condominiums at the corner of Sage and Richmond around 3pm.

No one was injured but approximately 30 units were damaged. HFD says more than 100 firefighters battled the fire.










James Roark says he rescued his neighbors' pets before escaping from his unit.

"I've lived here for 30 years," Roark said. "I'm going to miss a lot of things, so we're lucky we have friends in the area and I think they are going to put us up for the a little bit until we can figure things out."
