Fire Damages Mendota Apartments

A warm Sunday evening turned bad fast at an apartment complex in Mendota.

Reports of a fire at a building on Sandra Avenue started coming in minutes before 7.  The fire took the roof off of the four-unit building. Seven fire departments were called to fight the fire.

The State Fire Marshall’s office was at the building investigating a cause Sunday night.  The Red Cross has been called to work with the families who lived in the fire-damaged apartments.
