KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Two people were taken to the hospital after a fire at a Midtown apartment complex.

The first crews on the scene arrived to an apartment building at 301 W. Armour Blvd. around 7 p.m. and requested additional crews be dispatched to the scene.

A 41 Action News photographer on scene said the apartment building is 10-stories tall, prompting some of the additional units requested to the scene.

A fire department spokesman said the fire was contained to an apartment on the ninth floor. The two people taken to the hospital are being treated for smoke inhalation. Their condition was not immediately available.
