Fire in Roslindale apartment building

Some Boston firefighters didn't have far to go to respond to a fire around 9:45 p.m: It was on the sixth floor of the apartment building at 855 American Legion Highway, right across the street from the firehouse for Engine 53 and Ladder 16 at the intersection of American Legion, Cummins Highway and Canterbury Street.

The fire was confined to one apartment, and residents not immediately near the fire were told to shelter in place rather than try to evacuate. Some of the apartments below the one with the fire may have suffered water damage.
