House and apartment fires over the weekend kept area firefighters busy.
It started about 7 a.m. Saturday when Chattanooga firefighters rescued a man from his smoke-filled apartment at Boynton Terrace Apartments.
Spokesman Bruce Garner said firefighters entered the apartment with a master key and found the kitchen on fire. They found the man in bed and brought him outside. He was given oxygen and taken to Erlanger hospital.
The fire damage was mostly limited to the kitchen, Garners said.
About 10 p.m. Saturday, Chattanooga firefighters kept a fire from destroying a three-story apartment building at the corner of Bailey and South Orchard Knob avenues, Garner said.
