CHICAGO (CBS) -- A fire broke out Monday evening in a graystone apartment building in the North Lawndale neighborhood.
The Chicago Fire Department called a still-and-box alarm extra equipment and manpower to fight the fire at 1515 S. Homan Ave. A firehose was seen snaking through the door in a photo from the scene.
