7317 Cadogan Dr - At 3:22 AM, a 911 call was received by Mt Juliet Police & Fire Communications from a party advising they were calling from a 3rd floor apartment in the Lifestyle Communities Complex, and that their kitchen was on fire, and flames were up to the ceiling.

Officers from the Mt Juliet Police Department arrived on the scene in moments and advised that flames were visible inside the apartment.

First due was Engine-104 [A Shift] under the command of Captain Nick Ford [1101]. Upon his arrival he reported that there was nothing visible from the front of the building. Upon further investigation it was determined that there had been a stove-top fire and it had been extinguished by the building's sprinkler system. Positive pressure ventilation was initiated, and Squad-103 was tasked with shutting down the sprinkler system upon arrival.

Deputy Chief Chris Allen [Chief-102] arrived on scene a few minutes later and assumed command.

Once the sprinkler system, was disabled and water stopped flowing from the two activated heads in the apartment, salvage and overhaul began. Firefighters spent an extended amount of time using squeegees to move as much water as possible from the effected apartment into the stairwell to help minimize damage to possessions in the units below.

Investigation showed that the fire had originated in a pot on the stove and extended upward destroying a microwave and scorching some cabinetry.The smoke and fire damage were relatively minor.

The occupant(s) of the apartment were alerted to the fire by working smoke detectors and the sprinkler system shortly after. They were able to escape the building unharmed, as were all the neighboring occupants.

Of the 18 total apartments in the building, all but 3 were able to be immediately re-inhabited. The unit which had the fire and the two directly below it were deemed uninhabitable due to water damage and will have to be repaired before the tenants can move back in.
