CHICAGO (CBS) — A fire at an apartment complex left residents in the cold in Bronzeville overnight.

Video shows smoke coming from the windows of a building in the 3800 block of South Giles Avenue just after 1:40 a.m. Firefighters used ladders and broke windows to extinguish flames on the building’s upper floors.

A heating bus was available for residents who had to evacuate and for those displaced by the fire. First responders were working to get displaced residents to safety.

While the cause of the fire is under investigation, Chicago police said it may have been an accident.

No injuries were reported.

This is a development story. CBS News Chicago will continue to provide updates.
