2 EARLY MORNING FIRES

Manitoba Post StaffNews

WINNIPEG – A busy early morning began for firefighters on Provencher Boulevard just after 2:30 when they were called to a commercial building in the 100 block. No one was hurt but it looks like the cause was an electrical malfunction. No damage estimate yet. Then, shortly after that blaze was under control, just before five o’clock this morning, fire crews responded to reports of a four-plex on fire in the 500 block of Stella Avenue. Everyone got out and things were brought under control quickly but one person was taken to hospital in unstable condition after being checked over at the scene. No word yet on how the fire started or how much damage was done.
