MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- A fire forced three Minneapolis families out of their homes Sunday.

The two families in the neighboring units were also displaced due to smoke and water damage. In total, seven children -- all but one under the age of 6 -- four adults, five dogs and three cats were displaced. No one was hurt.

Investigators are still working to determine the cause.
