Emergency crews responded to a vehicle fire Tuesday morning at the Terra Nova Apartments in McPherson, where flames quickly spread to multiple vehicles in the complex’s parking lot.

The McPherson Fire Department was dispatched at 9:38 a.m., along with officers from the McPherson Police Department and the McPherson County Sheriff's Office, to the scene at 1423 Genesis Drive. Upon arrival, firefighters found two vehicles fully engulfed in flames, with fire extending to a third nearby vehicle.
Crews acted quickly to extinguish the blaze, preventing further damage to surrounding vehicles or property. Officials said the close proximity of the vehicles in the lot, along with windy conditions, contributed to the rapid spread of the fire.

An investigation into the origin and cause of the fire in the first vehicle is ongoing. Authorities say no foul play is suspected at this time. No injuries were reported.
The incident remains under review by fire officials.
