DENVER — The five-alarm fire that started in an apartment building on Friday continued to keep the firefighters busy on Sunday.
Denver Fire responded to the site of a 283-unit development around 7 p.m. Friday night. The flames prompted evacuations around Leetsdale Drive and South Forest Street, impacting businesses like Inga’s Alpine Tavern.
“The staff that was here sort of knew something was going on because of the sounds and they went out into the parking lot and saw the flames,” said Tony McNabb, co-owner. “Shortly thereafter, the police came over and said, ‘You guys got to evacuate.'”…
