Two-alarm fire off Woodhaven Road
Firefighters battled a two-alarm fire Monday night at the St. Ives complex off Woodhaven Road.
The fire broke out shortly after 11 p.m. in the building along the 200-block of Thornwood Place. Within minutes, the second alarm went off.
Despite the multiple alarms and heavy smoke, the blaze was under control just after 11:30, and the fire was contained to one apartment on the second floor. There were no reported injuries, but the cause is still being investigated.
