The Zagreb Fire Department responded to reports of an apartment building fire at Hebrangova street, down town. Arriving fire companies found an upper floor apartment unit well involved with fire. The fire had already breached into the attic space above the unit and a second was immediately called.

The fire caused severe damage to one unit and minor damage to one additional unit. Most of the occupants have been able to return to their apartment right away and none have requested the use of the medical assistance.
