Two firefighters and a resident were injured in a fire at an apartment complex in the Andalusia section of the township Thursday night. Their conditions were not immediately known, but the injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. The fire severely damaged six apartments in the Salem Harbor Apartments off High Road, Bensalem Battalion Chief Rob Sponheimer said Thursday night. Three of those units sustained significant fire damage, while the others were damaged by smoke and water. About 10 other apartments lost power and were without fire alarms, forcing residents to stay elsewhere. The Red Cross assisted at the scene. Crews were called to the scene around 5 p.m. and found heavy fire coming from a basement apartment.
