It took approximately 100 first responders to extinguish a fire that broke through the roofline and caused significant damage to a condominium complex in Lake Highlands just before 1 a.m. Friday, Dallas fire officials say.
Firefighters arrived at Richland Trace Condominiums in the 9800 block of Walnut Street in North Lake Highlands at 12:54 a.m. Friday and saw smoke and flames already coming through the roof, according to Dallas Fire-Rescue.
Dallas Fire-Rescue said about 100 firefighters were dispatched to fight the blaze, which officials said was caused by a resident using an open electric oven for heat.
