Murfreesboro Fire and Rescue Department Districts 1, 3, 6, 7, 8 and Engine 1 responded to a fire at 1710 E Northfield Blvd (Chariot Point Apartments) just before 4:30 Thursday evening.

Crews located the fire in two units of building Q, but were able to contain the fire to those two units. One other unit received minor smoke damage.

The two families that have been displaced are being assisted by the American Red Cross.

It appears at this time that the fire started in the chase between the two apartments. The Fire Marshal is on scene investigating at this time. More information will be released as it becomes available.
