A PRE-DAWN FIRE IN AN INDEPENDENCE, MISSOURI, apartment building destroyed the entire 3-story structure that had 24 units in it. The fire was discovered just before 5 am Central time Wednesday morning, yet all 42 residents were able to escape safely with no reported injuries.
The fire moved swiftly into the attic and early on the roof collapsed into the building. The fire department contained the fire to the one building in the large complex and had the fire under control by 6:30 am.
KCTV Ch. 5 Kansas city has some early helicopter video of the fire as it’s spreading through the building:
