A 2nd-alarm was sounded shortly after the initial alarm was dispatched at 2:58 pm Sunday afternoon.
It is reported "numerous" occupants were "trapped" in the burning building and also it's reported people "jumping" from the building as well.
Several KC-MO FD-EMS units are being or have been sent to the scene.
At 3:06 pm- the first KCFD arriving unit reports "heavy fire showing from a 3-story" apartment building.
As of 3:20 pm- "2 injuries" has been reported by EMS- and at least one of the victims reportedly a child.
Injuries reported by EMS to be not life-threatening.
As of 3:28 pm- the fire is reported to be "under control,"
NOTE: Grandview Fire- with several stations much closer to this incident- was made aware of this fire before the 2nd-alarm was dispatched- but apparently KC never requested GFD for a mutual aid response until an EMS unit was requested after the fire was declared under control.
