A mother and four children are displaced and being assisted by the American Red Cross today after a fire at their Middletown apartment.

The fire was in the 6800 block of Spring Garden Street. Deputy Fire Chief Steve Ludwig said it was contained to a second floor bedroom.

The mother and children were not home when it started. She came home to find the apartment filled with smoke and the fire detector alarm sounding.
