Apartments destroyed by fire

Six units of an apartment complex in Three Rivers were destroyed by fire Saturday morning.

Three Rivers Fire Department officials said the blaze was reported before 10:30 a.m. at the Waterfront Apartments, in the 400 block of Thomas Street.

Upon arrival, firefighters reported seeing flames coming from the upper level of the three-story apartment building.

The incident remains under investigation, though officials said they suspect the fire originated from a third-floor balcony.

A number of small flare-ups later in the day prompted firefighters to return to the scene and extinguish the so-called hot spots.

There were no injuries reported.
