Small Fire at Retirement Home in Fargo

Firefighters are called out to Bethany on University in Fargo.

A small fire broke out around 2 Sunday afternoon in a small mechanical room and an employee was able to put it out.

Firefighters did remove some smoldering material and used fans to ventilate the smoke from the first and second floors.

Since the fire was quickly found and put out by staff, people living at Bethany were kept indoors and sheltered in place.

No one was hurt.

The damage was minimal and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
