Dallas apartment fire draws dozens of firefighters, no injuries reported

Dozens of Dallas firefighters battled a two-alarm blaze at an apartment on Audelia Road on Sunday night, Dallas Fire-Rescue said.

Dallas Fire-Rescue crews were called to the two-story apartment complex in the 12000 block of Audelia Road just after 9:30 p.m. 

When crews arrived, they saw smoke coming from the building; however, the situation quickly intensified, with heavy flames breaking through the roof minutes later.

A second alarm was issued at 9:48 p.m., prompting a larger response, DFR said. Between 45 and 50 firefighters were deployed to battle the fire.

The fire was declared extinguished at 10:37 p.m. and the cause of the fire is under investigation, DFR said.
