MEDINA, N.Y. — Early on Sunday, fire crews in Medina were called to a fire in an apartment.
There was smoke in the building at 238 West Center Street, so firefighters went there. When the firemen got there, they found a fire in a first-floor apartment that was empty.
Firefighters helped people in other flats get out of the building.
Officials say that the fire was limited to one room in the apartment, but smoke damage was found in every room. The fire didn’t hurt the other three apartments, but there was smoke inside that firemen had to clear out.
