PHOENIX — Dozens of fire crews battled a large blaze at an apartment complex near 35th Avenue and Indian School Road early Tuesday morning.

The fire broke out after 3 a.m. and was upgraded to a second-alarm response due to heavy flames and smoke coming from the top floor of a three-story apartment building. About 50 or 60 firefighters responded to the scene and put out the fire.
