The Atlantic Fire Department and Atlantic Police responded to a report of smoke in the hallway at the Walnut Hill Terrace Apartments (1310 E. 10th Street) this (Tuesday) afternoon. Officers with the Atlantic P-D were first on the scene and confirmed there was smoke in the hallway, but it was the result of food burning in a cooking utensil, and there was no actual fire. The call came in at 4:22-p.m. The hallway was ventilated and fire units returned to station less than 10-minutes later. There were no injuries.
