‘Upon arrival, crews had an exterior fire that had extended up to the roof line and was beginning to enter the structure’<\/p>\n
The North Bay Fire Department and police are investigating a garage fire that took place on High Street in North Bay around midnight.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
“All 3 fire stations responded to a reported garage fire at 12:12 a.m.,” stated Jason Whiteley, North Bay’s Fire Chief, about the Wednesday morning fire.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He says the first fire crew arrived in just over four\u00a0minutes.<\/p>\n
“Upon arrival, crews had an exterior fire that had extended up to the roof line and was beginning to enter the structure,” explained Whiteley.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Fire crews entered the garage to ensure no one was inside and kept the fire from extending into the structure.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Whitely estimates fire crews had the fire under control in 15 minutes.<\/p>\n
The North Bay Fire Prevention Division has started an investigation and is treating the fire as suspicious.<\/p>\n
“We are now working with North Bay Police and the Ontario Fire Marshals’ Office,” said Whiteley.\u00a0<\/p>\n
