Overview
- The Houston Fire Department battled two structure fires in different parts of Houston overnight, with no civilian injuries reported.
- The first blaze destroyed at least six units at a three-story apartment building at Bellerive Drive and Marinette Drive.
- HFD says the apartment fire likely started when food was left on a stove, and the Red Cross is helping displaced residents.
- A later fire burned a single-story house on Glenhurst Drive, where crews searched the home and found no one inside.
- A firefighter fell about 15 feet while ventilating the roof and was treated on scene, and investigators are reviewing the house fire’s cause.
