HOUSTON — The Houston Fire Department responded to a fire at an apartment complex on the southeast side late Wednesday.
The fire was reported at about 7:50 p.m. along I-45 near Almeda Genoa.
The first firefighters on the scene found smoke and flames coming from two units on the second story of the complex.
A resident there managed to get her cat and make it out on her own. She told KHOU 11 she was in the shower when she heard a loud bang and smelled smoke.
No other residents were home at the time of the fire, and no injuries were reported.
A lightning storm was passing through the area at the time, but it wasn’t immediately determined what the cause of the fire was.
