At approximately 2:15 a.m. on November 24, the Idaho Falls Fire Department was dispatched to the 1900 block of Henryanna Avenue for a structure fire.
The reporting person told dispatch that there was smoke coming from an apartment within a nine-apartment complex. The occupant of the apartment where the fire started reported that a smoke detector went off, alerting the individual to the kitchen where the stove was on fire. The occupant attempted to put the fire out with a fire extinguisher and water.
Dispatch instructed the occupants to get out of the apartment complex and to pound on the doors of the other apartments on their way outside. Officers from the Idaho Falls Police Department assisted with evacuating the occupants from each of the apartments.
Two ambulances, two engines, a battalion chief and a ladder truck responded.
