LYNN, MASS. (WHDH) - Lynn fire crews saved several residents from a burning apartment building early Saturday on Kingsley Terrace.

The fire broke out around around 5:30 a.m.

One resident said she believes her cat sensed something was wrong and tried to warn her about the emergency. All residents were able to get out of the building safely.

Three firefighters suffered minor injuries battling the blaze.

There is no word on the cause of the fire at this time.

Officials are investigating.
