Fire crews responded to two different fires at homes in Mississauga on Monday.<\/p>\n
The first fire broke out in a garage at 5855 10th Line West, near McDowell Drive in Churchill Meadows, Mississauga Fire and Emergency Services platoon chief Dave Shaw told INsauga.com.<\/p>\n
Crews were called to the blaze at 5:15 p.m., Shaw said.<\/p>\n
One person, who attempted to extinguish the fire, experienced minor smoke inhalation and was treated on scene by paramedics, he added.<\/p>\n
Shaw said the fire was contained to the garage.<\/p>\n
A resident was working on a lawn mower in the garage, and that may have been the cause of the fire, he said. But there is no definitive cause.<\/p>\n
About an hour later, crews were called to the second fire at 6599 Glen Erin Dr., an apartment building near Battleford Road in Meadowvale at 6:14 p.m., Shaw said.<\/p>\n
The fire was on a balcony on the third floor of the apartment building, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen crews arrived, flames and smoke were visible on the balcony,\u201d Shaw said.<\/p>\n
Crews did what\u2019s called a \u201cblitz attack,\u201d applying water from the outside.<\/p>\n
No injuries were reported, and the fire was contained to the balcony.<\/p>\n
The cause of the fire is undetermined.<\/p>\n
Both fires were extinguished fairly quickly.<\/p>\n
