WASHINGTON (AP) -- At least two people were injured in a two-alarm fire at a condominium building near the Woodley Park Metro station.

District of Columbia firefighters responded to the fire in the 2500-block of Calvert Street NW on Monday evening. Heavy fire was seen coming from the fifth floor of the building.

Fire department spokesman Timothy Wilson says a firefighter was injured, along with a resident of the building who was sent to a hospital. The injuries were not believed to be life threatening.
