In Anchorage, firefighters tackled two structure fires within hours, both originating outside and moving inward, but fortunately, no injuries were reported. In Gaithersburg, Maryland, a three-story condominium fire led to two firefighters sustaining non-life-threatening injuries while nearly 100 personnel fought the blaze, which was eventually controlled. Dayton firefighters responded to an apartment fire with no reported injuries, successfully bringing the fire under control early morning.
