Čačak apartment fire: 15 residents evacuated, no injuries initially reported

On 3 November 2026, a fire broke out in an apartment on the fourth floor of a residential building on Krajinska Street in Čačak, central Serbia. According to a Tanjug report carried by RTV, 15 residents were evacuated as a precaution and firefighters were dispatched to the building.

What is confirmed

Fire and rescue crews brought the blaze under control. The apartment where it started sustained material damage. The first reports indicated that nobody had been injured. This is the preliminary information available at the time of the report, rather than a final official assessment.

The cause had not been established when the initial account was published. Investigators were expected to examine the scene. It would therefore be premature to attribute the fire to electrical wiring, heating equipment or any individual without official findings.

This article documents the incident of 3 November; it does not imply that an evacuation or road closure remains in progress. Residents are reminded of the importance of checking electrical and heating installations regularly.
