JFRD said the fire was likely due to a lightning strike. Embers from the fire dropped to the attic of the apartment, hit a sprinkler inside a home and melted it, which firefighters said likely helped the fire from spreading.
Two units were affected due to water damage. People living inside the units denied help from the Red Cross.
No injuries were reported.
