Fire destroys Apex home
A fire that erupted at an Apex home Saturday afternoon left a family homeless, firefighters said.
Posted — UpdatedCapt. Donald Pierce, with the Fairview Fire Department, said firefighters were called out to the blaze at 3604 Arthur Pierce Road at 12:24 p.m. Crews labored for more than an hour to put out the fire completely.
No one was home at the time, and no one was injured.
