No students were injured in a fire that caused minor damage to an apartment at a UNC-Chapel Hill dormitory Monday morning.

Chapel Hill firefighters said in a press release that crews were called to the Rams Village Student Housing around 9:22 a.m. in reference to a fire.

When crews arrived, they reported smoke on the second floor of the multi-level building. The apartment resident told firefighters that a pot of oil had caught fire on the stove.

A sprinkler head extinguished the fire and student residents safely exited the dorm when the alarm activated.
The fire caused minor damage to the stove and cabinets as well as smoke and water damage.

Shortly after the dorm fire was reported, around 9:36 a.m., another fire alarm was received at the Hinton James Dormitory. Crews found a trash can had caught fire in the seventh floor "D" wing and had been extinguished upon arrival.
