Residents of the unit where the fire started were not home at the time. The fire caused about $5,000 worth of fire and smoke damage to that apartment, officials said.
Two other units sustained some water damage, fire officials said.
No injuries were reported.
The Bexar County Fire Marshal’s Office is working to determine the cause of the fire.
