Carroll Street apartment fire under investigation

Fire investigators have returned to the scene of an apartment fire downtown, still trying to determine the cause of the blaze that forced about 30 UW students to seek other accomodations since early Saturday morning.

The blaze at 505 N. Carroll Street caused about $206,000 in damages. Thirteen Madison Fire Department units responded to the two-alarm blaze, which started in a sixth-floor apartment of the seven-story building.
