It was at 5:30am. Electrical short with one of the jacuzzis above B unit on building 4. Fire was contained to jacuzzi with some water damage to unit below. Maintenance and responder was taken to hospital for smoke inhalation. Luckily not many units were occupied in building 4. Our friend posted those pictures from top of building 3 on Facebook but it is a private group.

Hope so too. Fumes from the burning fiberglass can be quite toxic.
