Firefighters battle suspicious blaze in south Calgary along Macleod Trail
The Calgary Fire Department was called to the area of 96 Avenue and Macleod Trail S.W. at around 6:25 a.m.
“On arrival, they had heavy smoke, heavy flame on the rear of the building, concentrated mostly on the outside. That prompted the call for a second alarm to bring more resources in, due to the proximity of an exposure just to the south of the building,” Stahl said as crews continued to battle the blaze just after 8 a.m.“Crews immediately began attacking the fire and were able to keep it confined to the building of origin and are continuing to attack that fire at this time,” he explained.
Stahl said they have not received any reports of injuries and it appeared the building was unoccupied when firefighters arrived.
