A midday fire Wednesday forced people to evacuate this housing unit.
An apartment fire on Green Bay's east side this morning displaced six people — two adults and four children.
The fire burned a unit on Spinnaker Lane near Danz Avenue.
Michael Rader saw smoke and flames coming from an upper balcony in the back of the building.
"When I got here, they hadn't started putting it out yet," Rader said. "That would have been around 10:15 this morning. I would say it probably took them around 15, 20 minutes to get everything put out and under control."
The Green Bay Metro Fire Department says the fire burned one of eight units — and that nobody was hurt.
The fire department estimates the cost of the damage to be $55,000.
The American Red Cross was on scene Wednesday afternoon and offers resources, including shelter, to those affected by fires.
