Knoxville Fire Department is Investigating an Apartment Fire in West Knoxville

Knoxville, TN (WOKI) The Knoxville Fire Department is investigating a West Knoxville Apartment fire.

Crews called to the 2400 block of Piedmont Street last night (Thursday) and found heavy fire coming from a two-story apartment building.   The crew was pushed back from the interior due to the heavy volume of fire. 

A ladder truck was set up to provide water on the fire and once it was under control, KFD crews were able to enter the building and extinguish the blaze.

 The building had four apartments, and six adults and two children were displaced but no one was injured.  Three dogs also escaped without injury.
