Sunday Apartment Fire Stopped by Sprinkler System
Rapid City, S.D. – On Sunday morning, firefighters from Stations 1, 3 and 7 responded
to 4226 Kateland Street for a report of a structure fire. When crews arrived at
the three-story apartment complex just before 10:00 am, firefighters found
light smoke with water flowing from an outside deck. The occupant of the home
had been cooking on the grill when an uncontrolled cooking fire occurred. The
fire activated a sprinkler head on the balcony of the building which
extinguished the fire. No damage to the building was reported.
This
marks the sixth fire related sprinkler activation in Rapid City in 2019, and
the fifth in little more than a month. Four of the activations have occurred in
apartment buildings, one in a correctional facility and one in a large
commercial occupancy.
