An apartment fire sparked by a woman smoking in bed early Monday morning displaced nine people in Antioch, officials said.

The fire began around 2:30 a.m. in a unit on the second floor of a complex on the 1000 block of Claudia Court. Within 20 minutes firefighters extinguished the flames, which were contained to the room in which it started.
