Glendale firefighters contain blaze to third-floor apartment

Firefighters were able to contain a fire in a third-story apartment unit from spreading Tuesday afternoon, officials said.

Fire crews arrived about 3:35 p.m. to find flames rising from the third-floor apartment window in the 600 block of East Chevy Chase Drive, said Brandy Villanueva, Glendale Fire Department spokeswoman.

The building’s residents were quickly evacuated, she added.

No one was injured in the blaze.

Fire officials are still trying to determine whether any residents have been displaced from their homes as a result of the fire, Villanueva said.
