A single mother and her child have been displaced after fire broke out at their south Nashville apartment complex.

Crews were called to the Highland Apartments on Nolensville Pike just before 1 a.m. Friday.

The Fire Chief said a board in the phone box at the apartment complex sparked the electrical fire.

The blaze may have started after a utility truck hit phone lines in the area Thursday. 

One unit was badly damaged, displacing a mother and child. Officials said they believe the apartment complex will be helping them with a place to stay. 

No one was hurt in the fire.
