Family displaced by Olympia apartment fire

One family was displaced from an apartment at 1309 Fern St. SE in west Olympia late Friday after a fire, according to the Olympia Fire Department.

Firefighters responded to reports of a kitchen fire and found that the sprinkler system had activated by the time they arrived. One resident sustained cuts to the hand after breaking open a glass door to access a fire extinguisher. No other injuries were reported.

Damage to the apartment was estimated at about $5,000. The fire likely was an electrical fire.

The family is being assisted by the American Red Cross. The rest of the apartment complex was undamaged.

The Olympia Fire Department responded to the fire with four engines, one ladder truck, two medic units and a command unit.
