Fire in a Mountain View Apartment Complex has damaged six of the thirty units. Damage is estimated at around $30,000. According to ADN.com, the fire started in a bottom bathroom exhaust fan and made its way up three stories. At least 31 people were displaced, some of which will be housed by Red Cross of Alaska. Of the 31 displaced residents, many were children. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured. 

 

Hats off to the Anchorage firefighters. They prevented the fire from going up to the roof, which could have caused major structural damage.

Oh my word... Who knew a bottom bathroom exhaust fan could be potentially dangerous? This is a first for me. I guess anything mechanical is prone to malfunctions and electrical shorts. Hats off to the firefighters, indeed.

Hi C-Tann,

 

Yep, who knew right? I was a bit surprised but then again, if something is mechanical and can cause a spark, it can probably cause a fire.
