No injuries reported following Leon Valley apartment complex fire, official says

Crews from Leon Valley, Shavano Park responded to the Friday night fire

LEON VALLEY, Texas – At least two fire departments were at the scene of a Friday night fire in Leon Valley.

Fire crews from Shavano Park and Leon Valley responded to an apartment fire along Grissom Road. The complex is located just south of Bandera Road in Leon Valley.

A KSAT viewer from Leon Valley shared drone footage of the Friday night fire.

Leon Valley Assistant Fire Chief Chris Willis told KSAT on Saturday that the fire affected 12 apartment units at the complex.

None of the residents were injured, Willis said. The structure has since been condemned after the roof collapsed on top of the units.

Willis said the structure is not sound enough in its current form for firefighters to work on any further investigation.

The American Red Cross has reached out to displaced residents and is working to secure long-term housing for them, Willis said.

It is not yet known how many residents or pets were impacted by the fire.

This is a developing story. Check back with KSAT as we receive more information.
