Chicago firefighters responded to reports of an apartment building fire at 6430 South Stony Island Ave. and had doused the flames by 8:51 p.m., according to fire officials.

Several floors of the building were evacuated and warming buses brought to the scene for displaced residents. The fire reportedly began in a trash chute, fire officials said.

Four people were evaluated by medical professionals at the scene, but they refused to be taken to a hospital.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
