Pregnant woman gets medical attention for smoke inhalation sustained during Tulsa condo fire

Tulsa firefighters knocked down a fire that started at a condominium at 6118 South Lakewood Avenue at about 12:36 a.m. Wednesday.

Firemen arrived at the scene within three minutes of the call.

Tulsa District Fire Chief Ronnie Cole tells us that putting out the fire consumed a lot of time because of the way the buil;ding was constructed. "We had a lot of hidden spaces and fire gutted these hidden spaces and it took quite a bit of extra time to get it all completely extinguished because we had to actually go look for (the fire,)" Cole said.

One woman needed medical attention after breathing smoke from the fire.

"Also, one person was transported to the hospital , a lady that was with child breathed some smoke and there was a little bit of concern and they transported her, but I think everything's going to be fine there."

A total of six people were displaced out of two condos that were damaged by the fire.

Cole estimates that the fire caused about $125,000 in damages.

The cause of the blaze is under investigation.
