A two-alarm fire erupted on the 1700 block of 13th Ave S in Seattle just before noon on Sunday, prompting a swift response from the Seattle Fire Department.
According to the SFD, firefighters rescued an 87-year-old woman from the 15-unit apartment building. She was taken to Harborview Medical Center and is now in stable condition.
One firefighter suffered minor injuries and was also taken to Harborview.
The fire, which initially started on the second floor, quickly spread to the third floor, leading the SFD to upgrade the response to a two-alarm fire.
