ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Ten residents were displaced Friday afternoon after a two-alarm apartment fire at a complex in the 2900 block of South Rio Grande, according to the Orlando Fire Department.<\/p>\n

Firefighters responded to reports of the blaze and arrived to find heavy fire inside one apartment. The flames had spread to two neighboring units, prompting officials to upgrade the response to a second alarm.<\/p>\n

Crews quickly brought the fire under control, preventing it from spreading any farther.<\/p>\n

In addition to the three apartments directly impacted by the fire, nine more units sustained smoke and water damage. Orlando Code Enforcement condemned those apartments due to the extent of the damage.<\/p>\n

No civilians or firefighters were injured.<\/p>\n
