A fire investigator was called to an overnight blaze early this morning at a two-story, four-unit complex.

No injuries were reported.

Firefighters were called to 338 Willard St. near Kelsey Avenue at 3:51 a.m., and had the fire under control by 4:13 a.m, a fire dispatcher said.

Six residents reside in the dwelling; all were able to return home except for the individual in whose apartment the fire originated, said Lt. Matt Hertzfeld of the Toledo Fire Department.

Lucas County auditor’s records list the building as a residence built in 1897 and owned by Michael William McCrory.

Damages to the structure totaled $13,000, Lieutenant Hertzfeld said. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
