Four vehicles were damaged in a fire Tuesday around 12:15 p.m. in the upper level of the University of Minnesota Medical Center, Fairview Patient/Visitor parking ramp. No injuries were reported.
The ramp was closed for about an hour due to the amount of smoke. Some people waited outside for about a half hour in the cold.
The fire started in the engine of a sedan on the ramp's sixth floor, according to a Minneapolis Fire Department official at the scene. The fire then spread to a van and another car on the left and melted the side of a car to the right.
