"For this holiday season we're asking everyone, call 311 for smoke alarms," Philadelphia Captain Derek Bowmer said. "We don't know if there were smoke alarms in there. There could have been. For a fire escape plan, we want to ensure that all people have that throughout the city. And have a merry Christmas and happy New Year too."
Officials are investigating the cause of the fire.
