Excerpts from ABC7Chicago.com:
Three of the four Chicago firefighters injured Sunday afternoon while fighting a blaze in a West Side apartment building remain hospitalized, according to the Chicago Fire Department.
The firefighters all suffered heat and smoke-related injuries, including first- and second-degree burns. One has been released and the others are in good condition.
A flash was seen on the second floor as the firefighters went inside the building. Two of the firefighters had to jump out a second story window when a rush of oxygen ignited a backdraft as they entered the home along with two others who entered through the kitchen.
Six people have been displaced by the fire. No other injuries were reported.

Pictures from the Heights’ house fire @ 1446 East End AV on 8/1. I saw a small header while on the way but it was pretty much knocked and only a little bit of smoke still showing.
