Two other buildings were damaged, including an adjacent house, Hanania said. Resident Lorraine Santana told The Chicago Tribune that she was sleeping when she awoke to screams. She escaped one of the damaged structures with her three children and a dog. "I'm relieved my kids are safe," Santana said. The cause of the fire remained under investigation. Hanania said city officials would investigate if any building occupancy codes were violated in the building where the fire broke out. The American Red Cross of Greater Chicago provided food, clothing, winter coats, shoes and shelter, the group said in a news release.
