WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — A fire on June Avenue in Winston-Salem Sunday has left seven people displaced and a pet dead.
Social media video shows the fire at an apartment complex.
A spokesperson with Winston-Salem Fire said no one was injured, but a dog died. 
Officials said two-and-a-half units were damaged from the fire itself. Black Harbor Commercial is the landlord but, the property doesn’t have a name. 
All six units in the apartment building had smoke damage.
One couple now left without a home is Nautia London and her boyfriend Dagan Davis. 
They lived on the top floor of the building with their 2 and 4-year-old children. 
Thankfully, the couple wasn’t home when the fire started and they say they weren’t made aware of what happened until they showed up at the complex later Sunday evening. 
London told WFMY the family lost everything. “It’s all materialistic stuff, is what’s inside, I’m glad he and the kids and everybody else are OK but it’s still devastating to know that we all lost our belongings and homes.”
Davis took the children to his mother’s house Sunday before the fire broke out. He said looking at the damage, he doesn’t think the family would’ve made it out if they were home. “The doors are melted so that means the door was on fire so we wouldn’t have been able to get out.”
Now, London and Davis are relying heavily on family and friends until they figure out their next move. London’s father, though, is optimistic about the future saying, “everything’s going to work for the better.”
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
