A four-story apartment in Montgomery County caught fire early Sunday morning, forcing residents out and injuring two firefighters.
Spokesman Pete Piringer said the building in the 5100 block of Dudley Lane in Bethesda started burning a little after 3 a.m. About 140 firefighters were called to the scene.
The residents evacuated after alarms and sprinklers activated. Two firefighters were slightly injured.
Piringer said the fire appears to have started in a dryer and vent. At least three families are displaced and are being assisted by the American Red Cross.
