A fire that broke out in a Barstow apartment complex Sunday afternoon displaced 25 residents and put firefighters on the defensive after multiple HVAC units fell to the ground during a lengthy battle to contain the blaze, officials said.
On Monday, the Barstow Fire Protection District said no injuries resulted among its firefighters, and the American Red Cross was requested and arrived to assist the displaced residents of the May Lane Apartments in the 1000 block of May Lane.
The fire started around 2 p.m. Sunday in the rear of a two-story, eight unit complex, and thick plumes of brown smoke blew across nearby Interstate 15, south of the complex.
