Five residents and one firefighter were injured after a fire broke out at an apartment complex in West Chicago early Thursday, according to the West Chicago Fire Department.
Two apartments caught on fire at a 24-unit apartment building at 813 Burr Oaks Dr., said Battalion Chief Wade Johnson.
The five residents were taken Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield with non-life threatening injuries, Johnson said. The firefighter suffered a minor injury and was discharged.
The fire has been extinguished and the cause is under investigation, Johnson said.
