ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – A fire at an Orange County apartment complex Wednesday evening impacted 15 families, according to a spokesperson from the American Red Cross.
According to fire officials, an apartment building at the Osprey Links at Hunter’s Creek Apartments complex caught fire, prompting crews to respond.

The American Red Cross stated that the 15 families — consisting of 45 people, including children — were provided with a shelter location, though all families made other arrangements due to renters insurance.
Fire officials said the State Fire Marshall was requested to investigate the cause of the fire. News 6 has reached out to the State Fire Marshall and is awaiting a response.
The American Red Cross said any residents affected by the fire can call 1-800-RED-CROSS (733-2767) for assistance.
