Food burning on a stove set off fire sprinklers at St. Stephen’s Retirement Center on Imperial Avenue in Valencia Park in southeast San Diego Monday evening, fire officials said.
The burning food triggered the overhead sprinkler in a second-floor unit of the four-story building west of Valencia Parkway, San Diego Fire-Rescue Department officials said
The sprinkler doused the fire, which started at about 6:30 p.m., but caused water damage to some units below.
No injuries were reported, but at least six residents in several rooms were evacuated and need to stay somewhere else tonight.
