Knoxville Fire Department says Sprinkler System Helped Keep Apartment Fire From Spreading

The Knoxville Fire Department says the sprinkler system at an apartment complex does it’s job and contains a fire to limit damage.

Crews were called to  River View Park Apartments Friday night and saw flames from the door but found the sprinkler head had activated but there was significant damage to that apartment caused by water, as well as the area around the stove top where the fire started.

An Adult and child lived in the apartment and the American Red Cross is assisting both as well as the family who lives in the apartment directly below the fire which suffered water damage.
