A fire that erupted Monday in an apartment building on the eastern edge of March Air Reserve Base in Moreno Valley burned a man but did not cause significant damage to the structure.
The blaze was reported shortly before 5 p.m. in the 15200 block of Sixth Street, near N Street, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.
Responding crews found the remnants of a small fire on the first floor of the complex, which had been evacuated.
Staff at the site had contained and largely extinguished the flames by the time firefighters entered the property, according to reports from the scene.
Crews found a man with second-degree burns to 10% of his body, officials said.
The victim, whose name was not released, was taken to nearby Riverside University Medical Center for treatment. The patient was in stable condition.
The cause of the fire was under investigation.
