Tulsa,OK –
A two alarm apartment house fire near downtown Tulsa shuts down a busy roadway and sends residents fleeing into the street. More than two dozen units of the Denver Park Apartments at 17th and Riverside suffered some damage and as many as four were destroyed. Fire Chief Eddie Bell says crews managed to get all residents out safely, but it was a difficult blaze to battle.
Police closed off Riverside while the fire was being fought, and it caused a huge backup of traffic on one of the major roadways leading to downtown.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
