SOUTHEAST BOISE, Idaho — A fire at Greenbriar Apartments off of Apple Street in Southeast Boise displaced multiple residents and prompted a large-scale fire response Tuesday night.

At this time, we don't know how many residents were displaced, but according to Boise Fire, three apartments sustained fire damage and one apartment has smoke damage from the blaze, but thankfully no injuries have been reported.

Crews from the Boise Fire Department, Ada County Paramedics and Idaho Power all responded around 9:22 p.m.

Neighborhood Reporter Sahana Patel was at the scene and spoke to a young boy who witnessed the aftermath.

"I go over there, ask the policeman like what's going on, and he's like, oh, the apartment burnt down.... and there were a bunch of kids crying, like yelling like, like mommy, it was like really sad," he said.

Investigators are still working to figure out what started the fire, and the Boise Fire Burnout Fund is being used to assist those displaced.
