According to the fire department, the first fire company that arrived reported a fire on a fourth-floor balcony.
Firefighters made their way into the apartment and found the sprinkler activated in the bedroom.
Glass from the balcony doors broke due to the fire and the sprinkler activated kept the fire from spreading.
Firefighters extinguished a small fire on the balcony that remained after the sprinklers were activated.
Several apartments received water damage due to the sprinklers. Fire crews used tarp to cover the affected areas.
All occupants were evacuating the building upon the arrival of firefighters.
Due to the frigid temperatures, apartment occupants were sheltered on the first floor until they got approval to return to their apartments.
The cause of the fire is under investigation. The Red Cross was called to assist two people.
