Fire destroys unit of Minneapolis fourplex overnight, no injuries
Around 2:45 a.m. Saturday, crews with the Minneapolis Fire Department responded to a report of a fire in a 2.5-story, fourplex residential home at 3024 Park Avenue South.
Crews were able to extinguish the fire before it spread to other residential units, the department said.
"Unfortunately, the downstairs unit is not going to be habitable," Mullen said. "But the rest of the units are going to be alright in the building."
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
The Minneapolis Fire Department says the fire destroyed the first floor unit. It didn't extend into the other apartments. (FOX 9)
