The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to a greater alarm fire at an apartment complex in Boyle Heights.

The fire broke out around 4:45 p.m. Thursday at a three-story apartment building in the 1300 block of North Soto Street. LAFD said the building is under construction, and the flames are being fought by firefighters to prevent exposure to a single-family home located at the rear of the building.

Firefighters knocked down the fire roughly 90 minutes later. 

The cause of the fire is still under investigation. There are no reports of injuries.
