Black smoke was seen rising from a building, on Yates Road off Glenmore Road, on the southeast side of the complex.

When firefighters arrived at around 4:30 p.m., they quickly assembled to extinguish the blaze.

Crews went inside the condo building to ensure flames were not trapped within the inside walls.

No one was injured in the fire.

An external air conditioning unit on the deck was covered with numerous items, which lead to the fire, according to the fire department.
