Fire at Fort Lauderdale condo burns through roof; residents evacuated
A fire erupted at a condominium in Fort Lauderdale on Tuesday night, burning through the building’s roof and forcing residents to evacuate.
Firefighters were called to the building in the 600 block of Tennis Club Drive shortly before 7:30 p.m. after people reported a fire on the fourth floor and windows shattering, said Frank Guzman, a Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue spokesperson.
Crews found heavy fire and smoke, requiring aerial ladders to extinguish, Guzman said. The building was largely undamaged, with most of it contained to an elevator shaft and the roof above it.
None of the condos in the 24-unit building was damaged, Guzman said.
An investigation is underway to determine the cause.
