NASHUA, N.H. — Two people are dead after a raging fire tore through a multi-family home in the southern New Hampshire city of Nashua early Tuesday.
Crews responding to reports of a fire at an eight-unit building on Orange Street around 3:20 a.m. found intense flames erupting from the second floor, according to Nashua Fire Chief Steve Buxton.
