FARGO, N.D. (AP) - No one was hurt in a fire in Fargo that prompted the evacuation of an apartment building in the middle of the night.

Investigators believe an unattended lighted candle in a bathroom started the blaze about 2:15 a.m. Monday.

Firefighters put out the flames in about 20 minutes. Damage is estimated at less than $3,000.
