Fire crews responded to an alarm at a multi-story wood-frame apartment building. On arrival, nothing was visible from the front, but the building alarm was sounding. A resident in apartment 20 reported burnt food as the cause of the alarm. Firefighters checked the apartment and hallway, found a light haze of smoke, and silenced the alarm system. They used a fan to ventilate the hallway from the center stairwell. No active fire was found, and units began to clear the scene.
