fire, they believe, was on the inside and they said they did hear from at least one person, perhaps homeless people, were living in this structure. during the fighting of the fire, the fire department did have to evacuate a couple of people who lived in the next door houses because there was so much smoke. there was a fear of carbon monoxide poisoninging. now the fire is out those people are back home and this fire in this abandoned building you can see behind me is out. one of the tricks here if you look to the left side it's hard to see but on the other side there are homes so there was a risk of this fire spreading. the san jose fire department was able to keep it contained. reporting live, bob redell, b "today in the bay." >> very fortunate outcome for those homeowners. thank you very much, bob. 5:02. new this morning, our first look at footage that reportedly shows a missile being launched from north korea.
