A tragic Fourth of July in Ludlow where three people are dead after a fast moving fire on Newbury Street Tuesday morning.
Initial calls came in right around 6:30.
Neighbors in the tight knit neighborhood pounded on doors and windows and tried to use garden hoses to put out the fire but with no success.
It took a little more than an hour to knock down the blaze.
The State Fire Marshal has been brought in to search for a cause.
Officials have not identified any of the victims.
