Salt Lake City Fire Department responded to a two-alarm fire at 1476 S. 200 East at 2:51 a.m. where a shed caught fire and moved into one of the apartments on the second floor, fire officials said. The apartment suffered fire damage while five other units in the building suffered smoke and water damage.
