One person hurt in Lombard apartment fire

One person suffered a minor hand injury from a fire at a Lombard apartment complex Thursday night, officials said.

Firefighters were called to the three-story apartment building on the 500 block of Woodland Avenue around 8:30 p.m. after several residents reported “heavy smoke” on the first floor.

Firefighters located the fire in a first-floor bedroom closet and quickly extinguished it. A resident suffered a hand injury and was treated at the scene, village officials said.

The fire caused an estimated $30,000 in damage, officials said, and the cause remains under investigation. Only the unit where the fire was found was deemed uninhabitable.
