Downtown Fire Extinguished
At approximately 11:20 this morning, the Key West Fire Department responded to a structure fire at 7 Aronovitz Lane, just off the 600 block of Duval.
The roof of the wood structure apartment building was fully engulfed when firefighters arrived. The fire was quelled after about two hours. Nearby roadways were closed with the help of the Key West Police Department so that firehoses could be deployed.
The Red Cross is currently on scene with about ten people who are displaced by the fire. There were no injuries. Four apartments were destroyed in the blaze.
The Florida State Fire Marshal is enroute to investigate the cause of the fire.
