No one was injured in an apartment fire at City Limits Apartments Monday night.
Firefighters and Mower County Sheriff deputies were called to the apartments just north of Austin after 9:30 p.m. Monday, according to Chief Deputy Mark May.
May said firefighters put out a kitchen fire, which turned out to be burning food on the stove. There was no damage estimate as of Tuesday morning, but May said firefighters had to ventilate the apartment.
The apartment’s tenant was not home at the time of the fire, May said.
