The Redmond Fire Department responded to a two-alarm fire at an apartment complex at the 4800 block of 156th Ave NE shortly before noon today. 

Fire and EMS units were dispatched at 11:55 a.m. to a working structure fire reported by a neighbor which sent firefighters from Redmond, Bellevue, Kirkland, and Woodinville. 

First units arrived at 12:01 p.m. and found one apartment well involved with fire extending 15 feet out one window before being extinguished.  The alert neighbor and quick response prevented the fire from extending to the three adjacent apartment units.  There were no occupants in the involved apartment at the time of the fire and there were no injuries. 

The fire is currently under investigation by the Redmond Fire Department.
