DALLAS — Updated at 9:10 a.m. with additional information from officials.
Multiple people were displaced after an accidental fire broke out in an apartment building Wednesday night, Dallas Fire-Rescue officials said.
Fire officials said investigators believe the fire started in a vacant unit in the building at the New World Apartment Complex on the 11400 block of Woodmeadow Parkway.
The seven other units in the building were all occupied at the time of the fire, according to crews.
Firefighters at the scene said all residents were able to evacuate before crews arrived. There were no injuries reported, according to officials.
Damage was limited to the unit where the fire began, though power had to be shut off to the entire 150-unit complex.
The Red Cross was assisting those affected, officials said.
Investigators said the fire was accidental and was likely the result of an electrical short in the attic space of the building.
