2-Alarm fire in Melrose Park, 7-10-16

This from Josh Boyajian:

Here are some shots from a 2nd Alarm in Melrose Park Sunday afternoon. First companies had a 2.5-sty apartment over commercial @ 144 Broadway. The first floor was occupied by a bakery and the second floor was occupied apartments. Crews encountered fire on both floors and in the attic. Multiple handlines were in use for about 2 hours until the alarm was struck.
