Erin Tracy, Merced Sun-Star:

A two-alarm fire displaced nine people and damaged apartments above a former bar in downtown Modesto on Thursday.

Modesto Regional Fire Authority crews arrived about 2:45 p.m. and saw flames and smoke coming from a second-story apartment, said Battalion Chief Alan Ernst. He said because the fire was on the second floor, he called for a second alarm, bringing a total of six engines, two trucks and three battalion chiefs.
