We’re told fire crews discovered heavy smoke billowing from the rear of the building upon their arrival. The City says after a search was conducted, it was determined that no one was inside the building, adding that occupants on the first floor had escaped prior to contacting authorities.
Firefighters were reportedly able to control the fire, which originated in a low-level roof area, the City tells us.
