Two people were rescued and another jumped from a second-story apartment trying to escape a fire at their apartment complex early Sunday morning. Lebanon Fire said the fire broke out at the apartment complex at 2051 South Second Street at around 2:00 a.m. Firefighters said multiple people were hanging from second-story windows when they arrived. With the help of the Lebanon Police Department, firefighters rescued two people from different second-story windows. Darin Head, who lives in the apartment building, said he was woken up by his aunt telling him the complex is on fire. Head said he found a way out of his front door, grabbed a hose and tried to put the fire out. “I just tried my best and that little hose, was not doing anything,” Head said. He said during this time, his girlfriend jumped from a second-story window to escape and said she fractured her ankle and spine.
