For the Reporter<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n One person was seriously hurt early early Saturday morning during a three-alarm apartment fire in the 3200 block of South 192 Street in SeaTac, the Kent Fire Department reported.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The patient \u2013 whom firefighters found on the grass below her second-story apartment balcony \u2013 was treated and transported to a local hospital by King County Medic One. Her condition is not known.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n There were no other reported injuries, Kent Fire officials said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Fire, smoke and water damaged 18 units, authorities said, leaving 44 people homeless.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The Red Cross was called in to help the displaced.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The apartment complex’s management also helped the residents by providing apartments for them at another nearby location. King County Metro provided a bus to keep the residents warm and to transport them to the other apartment complex.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The fire was reported around 1:20 a.m. The first units on location found fire and smoke coming from the backside of the second and third stories of the three-story building. Because the fire took place during a time that most people would be home and asleep, firefighters attacked the fire aggressively to protect anyone who might have been trapped inside. Fortunately, everyone had been able to self-evacuate and searches of the apartments found no occupants.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n In addition to the Kent Regional Fire Authority, firefighters from South King Fire and Rescue, Burien, Tukwila, and the Port of Seattle responded to the incident. The Zone 3 Fire Explorer provided staffing for the rehab area.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The fire is under investigation.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One person was seriously hurt early early Saturday morning during a three-alarm apartment fire in the 3200 block of South 192 Street in SeaTac, the Kent Fire Department reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":106,"featured_media":21504,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-21503","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21503"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/106"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21503"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21503\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21504"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21503"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kentreporter.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=21503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
