An apparent electrical issue triggered a structure fire response to an Emporia apartment complex Sunday morning.
Firefighters from Emporia, Americus and Olpe responded to The Villas, 1839 Merchant, around 8:35 am after smoke was reported in room 302. Emporia Fire Capt Ben Lienemann says the reported smoke came from a circuit board on an air handling unit. No fire was discovered.
No evacuations were needed. Two people were checked on scene for inhalation concerns but declined further treatment.
