Fire damages one unit on 14th floor of Uptown Dallas high rise

Dallas fire investigators are still looking for the cause of yesterday's fire in an Uptown high rise.

Just after 5:00 p.m. the 911 calls came in sending Dallas Fire-Rescue to the Villas at Katy Trail on Maple Avenue.


Fire crews could see the smoke from quite a distance and when they pulled up in front of the 15-story building they could see flames and smoke jetting from the balcony of a unit on the 14th floor.

Commanders quickly added a second and a third alarm as firefighters worked their way up.

They busted in and quickly doused the fire.

Dallas Fire-Lieutenant Jason Evans says no one was home in the unit where the fire started so they've been looking through the debris to figure out the cause.
