Firefighters battle fire at 2-story apartment complex under construction in Phoenix

PHOENIX - Firefighters continue to extinguish hotspots after a second-alarm fire broke out at a two-story apartment complex that was under construction in a Phoenix neighborhood.

The Phoenix Fire Department says crews responded to the scene just before 6 a.m. near 12th Street and Indian School Road on August 25 and found the apartment complex fully engulfed in flames.

Crews were able to prevent the fire from spreading to other nearby structures. Nearby business owners told the fire department the construction was seven months in the project at the time of the fire.

No firefighters were injured.
