A fire broke out in the Stephen Court building at Park Street here on Friday evening. The incident took place in a room in the fifth floor, which was left abandoned, at around 6 p.m., according to sources.
Three fire tenders rushed to the spot and doused the fire within half-an-hour. The cause of the fire is yet to be known.
A massive fire accident killed nearly 50 people in March 2010 in the same building.
