PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- Three people were displaced and one of them was hospitalized after a fire at an apartment building in Northwest Portland Sunday morning.

At around 9 a.m., crews responded to the 1200 block of Northwest 23rd Avenue on reports of a structure fire.

Officials said firefighters first arriving at the scene noticed heavy gray smoke coming from a second-story window and a resident was stuck on the top floor.

The resident was rescued after being extricated out of a third-story window, then taken to a hospital, authorities said.

Crews next worked to cut a hole in the roof, releasing trapped smoke from the attic space.

Although the fire was successfully extinguished, officials said three residents were displaced.
