LAS VEGAS -- The Clark County Fire Department responded to a two-alarm fire at an apartment complex near Valley View Boulevard and Flamingo Road at about noon Thursday.

According to the CCFD, the fire damaged two apartment units, but smoke and water impacted the other six units in the building. One person was taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation.

 "The smoke is the worst. That's the worst is the smoke," Dionna Long, who had to be taken to the hospital because of the smoke. "It was so thick, so thick. You had to get out."

The American Red Cross along with the apartment managers are providing help to the people displaced by the fire.

"We had no time, seconds, seconds.  We had no time, so everything is gone: laptops, phones, presents, gone." Long said.

Paul McIntyre was driving by, when he saw the fire. He stopped and worked to help has many people as he could.

LAS VEGAS - A viewer says the intersection at Fort Apache Road and Maule Avenue becomes packed with cars and people every day as school gets out. He says a traffic signal is needed.

The intersection used to contain a two-way stop with marked crosswalks, school flashers, and slower, school zone speed limits. Recently, it became a multi-way stop, but locals say a full signal is needed.

With students streaming in and out of nearby Faiss Middle School and increased traffic during the summer from the recently opened Wet ‘n' Wild water park, a traffic signal may be in order.

Clark County officials conduct yearly traffic studies for this intersection. It never warranted a full signal until recently.

The most recent study took place after Wet ‘n' Wild's opening. Researchers determined a traffic signal is now needed at this intersection. Construction will begin in summer 2014.

LAS VEGAS -- The search continues for the person responsible for the hit-and-run crash that left 6-year-old Brazyl Ward in a coma on Halloween night. The parents of the girl say she is starting to show improvement.

For the first time since the crash, Brazyl is looking around her hospital room and making eye contact. Her parents say her femur is healing well and soon she'll be meeting with a speech therapist.

Brandon Ward says the improvement in his daughter's condition and the continuous support from the community give him hope.

"We know they're praying and know they're supporting us and we've had a great outpouring from the community," Ward said.
