Currently, no one is facing criminal charges in connection with the incident.

Monday’s fire was confined to a roof of a building at the complex that is undergoing repairs. No injuries were reported, and the building did not suffer structural damage.

In early May, a building at the complex partially collapsed due to a fire. It’s unclear if Monday’s fire occurred at the same building.
