Firefighters found smoke inside and launched an interior attack, bringing the fire under control by 10:57 a.m. Occupants had already evacuated safely with their pets. The fire is believed to have been accidental.<\/p>\n<p>\nADVERTISEMENT <br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Shortly before 6 p.m., crews responded to a grass and brush fire at the Transcona Bioreserve, arriving to find a blaze covering roughly 4,000 square metres. Firefighters used handlines and specialized wildland equipment to contain the fire, while a WFPS drone directed crews to hotspots. The fire was declared under control at 6:24 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Just after 8 p.m. the same evening, firefighters were called to a vacant two-and-a-half storey residence in the 200 block of Simcoe Street. The fire was under control by 8:42 p.m. No occupants were found and no injuries were reported.<\/p>\n<p>All three incidents remain under investigation. No damage estimates are available for any of the fires.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Want to see more of our stories on Google?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"April 27, 2026 10:35 AM | News (UFFW 867 \/ FILE) The Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service responded to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":632252,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194296],"tags":[49,48,209503,1132,22073],"class_list":["post-632251","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-winnipeg","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-city-of-winnipeg","tag-fire","tag-winnipeg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/632251","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=632251"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/632251\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/632252"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=632251"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=632251"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=632251"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
