HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla — One person was injured after a fire broke out at an apartment complex in Hillsborough County on Thursday.
Hillsborough County Fire Rescue (HCFR) said firefighters arrived at the complex on Bearss Avenue and Turtle Creek Circle in Tampa around 4:45 p.m. after multiple 911 calls reported smoke and flames from an apartment.
Three alarms had to be called to fight the fire, which, according to HCFR, took crews about an hour to put out.
One person was injured, and one dog died in the fire. A cat was rescued.
A South Tampa man turned to Susan Solves It after he said ADT told him he had to keep paying for a security system at his Hurricane Helene-damaged home, even though the system was so new that he never had a day of service.
