A coffee-bean roaster is reportedly to blame for an early morning apartment fire in Scottsdale.
It happened early Thursday on Camelback Road just east of Hayden Road.
According to the fire department, the fire started in a second-floor apartment, destroying the unit.
The woman who was in the apartment at the time was able to get out safely.
Annabell Ramirez said it all started with a small fire in a coffee-bean roaster. She said she tried to put it out, but the glass shattered and the fire spread quickly.
"Before I knew it, flames were coming out of the window," she said.
The apartment below where the fire started sustained water damage.
Nobody was hurt, but four or five people were displaced.
