The New Orleans Fire Department responded to a three alarm fire at the Uptown home of several Loyola students the morning of Oct. 15.

The three-story duplex at 2326 Short Street is home to nine people, one of whom was rescued from the roof and transported to a local hospital after suffering from smoke inhalation, according to nola.gov. 

It took firefighters an hour and a half to control the fire that spread to the second and third floors of the building, according to the website. 

The cause of the fire is being investigated.
