City firefighters made quick work of a fire in an apartment at 367.5 Foote Ave. recently.

Firefighters responded to the home at 12:59 a.m. Nov. 30 after being called by residents and found heavy smoke coming from the first and second floor windows on the front side of the house. Smoke alarms could be heard, and residents met firefighters in the rear apartment who said all residents had left the home.

“Without smoke alarms this incident could have ended much worse,” firefighters said in a news release. “Please remember to check your smoke alarms.”
