Two Blazes Pop Up Along the Peninsula One After the Other

Fire crews along the Peninsula began 2017 with a busy morning battling two fires.

A two-alarm blaze, which was reported at 7:21 a.m., ignited at 935 El Camino Real in South San Francisco and burned through a medical clinic, according to fire officials. No one was hurt, but the building, which is reportedly home to a satellite clinic for the Mills-Peninsula Medical Center, suffered major damage.

Earlier Sunday morning, at 6:23 a.m. fire officials responded to a fire at an apartment complex at 34 Visitacion Avenue in Brisbane, the dispatcher said.

It was not immediately clear if anyone was injured in either fires.
