A two-alarm fire that spread through an apartment complex in Edmonds put two people in the hospital and damaged at least eight units. Snohomish South County Fire reports heavy smoke was pouring from the building on 236th Street S.W., a couple of blocks east of Edmonds Way, when crews arrived just before 3:00 p.m. Saturday. More than 60 firefighters responded, fighting the fire from the roof and from inside several units of the one-story building. Crews had the fire under control after about 40 minutes. Responders upgraded the fire to a two-alarm commercial fire to bring in more firefighters and equipment. Firefighters from the Shoreline Fire Department arrived to assist South County crews. The two people hurt, both adults, suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Medics transported them to Swedish Edmonds hospital.
