Firefighters battled a fire caused by gasoline on a barbecue grill at a far northeast Dallas apartment complex on Monday afternoon.
Firefighters were called to the Huntingbrook Apartments at Audelia Road and Amberly Drive, north of Interstate 635 and east of Richland College, at 1:20 p.m.
The fire began in a first-floor apartment where an occupant grilling on his patio used gasoline to light the grill, Dallas Fire-Rescue said.
The occupant sustained some minor burn injuries but did not want to be taken to a hospital for further evaluation, fire officials said.
Fire crews saw lots of smoke and fire coming out of the roof of the two-story building when they arrived.
Six units out of the 12 apartments in the building were damaged. Four were damaged by four, and two were damaged by smoke and water.
