NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A man and woman were taken to the hospital following a house fire in North Nashville on Sunday night.

Nashville fire crews were called to a unit of a triplex property on 22nd Avenue North at about 11:40 p.m. Sunday.

When crews arrived, a resident was outside and told them that another person was still inside. When crews found the person inside, that person did not sustain any fire damage but severe smoke conditions prevented them from being able to exit on their own.

Crews pulled the person inside the home to safety, with medical crews standing by. A man and woman were then transported to Vanderbilt for smoke inhalation related injuries but should be alright.

The fire was extinguished and no injuries to personnel were reported.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
