Several Ocean City families lost their home in large house fire Friday.

The second floor of the home in the 900 block of Simpson Avenue was completely burned, with residents losing everything, according to the nonprofit El Pueblo Unido.

The first floor is flooded and uninhabitable.

The rear cottage that had a family of four with two young children had no physical damage but had to be evacuated as well.
