No Injuries in Fire that Destroys 30-Unit Apartment Complex

Fire officials say no one was injured when a fire destroyed an apartment complex in central Missouri.

The Evergreen Condos in Holts Summit were fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived early Monday.

Holts Summit fire Lt. Scott Pasley said the complex included about 30 units. He said everyone evacuated immediately and all residents were accounted for after the fire.

KMIZ reports Pasley said the fire was challenging because of high winds, cold temperatures and the number of people living in the complex.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
