FIRE 06SI

TAMPA,FL. - FIRE- A cross at Lady of Perpetual Hope sits in the foreground as an apartment complex under construction burns in Ybor City Friday. The fire started when a forklift touch electrical wires. It went up like logs on a bonfire. When flames licked the wooden frames of the apartments in The Park at Ybor City, it touched off a blaze that quickly destroyed the apartment complex and, a short time later, a nearby post office. Firefighters battled the inferno - and their exhaustion - for hours. When it was over, five city blocks were leveled at a cost of about $40 million.
