ANTIOCH, Tenn. (WTVF) — Investigators in the Nashville Fire Department say a fire that broke out at an Antioch apartment complex in early May was started from a discarded cigarette.
The fire broke out late May 7 at the Chimney Top Apartments off Cane Ridge Road. According to investigators, someone on a balcony of one of the apartments discarded a cigarette, accidentally sparking the fire.
The fire then spread to nearby units. The fire department said high wind gusts also contributed to the spread of the flames.
