SMOKE EVACUATES BETHESDA CONDO BUILDING OVERNIGHT ON WESTBARD CIRCLE

Montgomery County Fire and Rescue units responded to a report of smoke at the Kenwood Place condominiums, at 5301 Westbard Circle, around 3:20 AM this morning.

According to scanner reports, firefighters found no fire, but the initial investigation indicated an electrical problem. One firefighter reported a blown fuse, as personnel searched units on the third and fourth floors of the garden-style building. Shortly afterward, it was determined further units were not needed, as fire officials continued to investigate the incident. Residents who were outdoors at that point were told they could shelter in the building lobby.
