further updates -- all residents are safe and accounted for.

Cause is still under investigation. There's a lot of kuddos going out to the FDs and PDs initally on scene as they were literally running through the building with fire around them knocking in doors and getting people out

I was at work (MPFD) when the call came in and my crew was surprised our tower didn't get called up top Norwich. They got inundated pretty fast and when the first unit arrived on scene, they stuck a 2nd and a 3rd alarm. At the same time, NFD was fighting a brush fire (as I was told) up in the Greenfield section of city (NFD's district).

They did have a water supply problem up there and they were mainly concerned about getting everyone out of the building. As of right now, this is a suspicious fire and the investigation is continuing.
