Crews in Mount Pleasant are responding to a reported fire Sunday.

Firefighters are at the Bridgeside Apartments at Patriots Point this morning, according to the Mount Pleasant Fire Department.

The department said crews were working a fire on the fifth floor. People were asked to avoid the area while emergency personnel respond to the situation.

“The building’s sprinkler system held the fire at bay, giving crews time to search for victims and stretch hose lines to fully extinguish the flames,” department officials said. “Our Fire Marshal Division is currently investigating the cause of the fire. Crews were also able to restore the sprinkler system before clearing the scene.”
