NORFOLK, Va. — Two people and two dogs were displaced on Friday following a residential fire on Granby Street in the East Belvedere neighborhood, according to a city official.

When fire crews arrived just before 8 a.m., they found a fire in the attached garage and made an "offensive (interior)" attack. The fire spread to the main structure, where crews were hindered due to heavy contents in the house.
