The Little Rock Fire Department is responding to a fire at a residence in the city’s Hillcrest neighborhood.

Agency spokesman Jacob Lear-Sadowsky said firefighters were called around 11 a.m. to 1417 Kavanaugh Blvd. in reference to smoke billowing from the back of a multi-unit building.

The fire department remained on scene shortly before noon, with the fire marshal expected to arrive later Wednesday to investigate, Lear-Sadowsky said.

No injuries were reported in the fire, and it was not immediately clear how many people were inside the building at the time.
