The two-alarm fire was reported at 1:15 p.m. in an unoccupied unit at the Hookston Senior Apartments at 80 W. Hookston Road.
A male victim in an adjacent unit suffered injuries while trying to escape through a hallway and had to be injured from an apartment balcony, fire district spokesman Steve Hill said. He was taken to a hospital and an update on his condition was not immediately available.
