The fire started around 11:40 p.m. at a complex in the 2900 block of Northwest 28th Street, which is near May Avenue. When firefighters arrived, they found heavy flames coming from the roof of a two-story apartment building.

Fourteen units in the building were evacuated, fire department officials said. No injuries were reported, and firefighters found several dogs inside who are safe.
