A fire in a Tenderloin District apartment building prompted an evacuation Sunday, the San Francisco Fire Department said.

Around 12:10 p.m., the fire department said crews were at a building on the 400 block of Jones Street for a two-alarm fire.

The building is six stories, and the flames were on multiple floors, SF Fire said.

Residents were evacuated, and one person was taken to the hospital after crews evaluated three people with possible smoke inhalation injuries.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
