CHICAGO (STMW) -- A man was hospitalized after a fire broke out late Monday night in a Washington Park neighborhood apartment building on the South Side.

The fire broke out about 11:50 p.m. in the top floor of a four-floor apartment building in the 6200 block of South King Drive, Fire Media Affairs spokesman Joe Roccasalva said.

The adult man, whose age was not immediately known, was taken in good condition to Saint Bernard Hospital and Health Care Center, Roccasalva said. No residents were displaced as a result of the fire.

The cause of the blaze was unknown Tuesday morning as fire officials investigated.
