(Photo Courtesy of Pat Bevan)<\/p>\n<p>A multiple-alarm fire on Hamilton Mountain in the area of Springside Drive has caused an explosion that was felt by residents in the area.<\/p>\n<p>Crews say the fire took place between Alderlea Avenue and Spalding Drive.<\/p>\n<p>Neighbours in the area tell CHCH News that they heard a large explosion shortly after 7 a.m. and that they could feel it from two streets over. They described it as shaking their house.<\/p>\n<p>Videos show that the flames were above the house and the fire appears to have started in the two-car garage that was behind the home.<\/p>\n<p>Smoke is visibly present and fire crews are on the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Police told neighbours that occupants were home when the fire broke out, but everyone managed to escape safely.<\/p>\n<p>This is a developing story. More to come.<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chch.com\/chch-news\/east-hamilton-home-taken-down-after-extensive-fire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"bookmark noopener nofollow\">East Hamilton home taken down after extensive fire<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            Make us a preferred source on Google<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.chch.com\/chch-news\/driver-injured-after-airborne-vehicle-hits-niagara-on-the-lake-building\/\" class=\"nav-item-prev\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/airborne-crash-niagara-on-the-lake.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"car crashes into building Niagara on the Lake\" decoding=\"async\"   itemprop=\"image\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1\/1;\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrevious CHCH News\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDriver injured after airborne vehicle hits Niagara-on-the-Lake building\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.chch.com\/chch-news\/port-colborne-crash-closes-stretch-of-highway-3-opp\/\" class=\"nav-item-next\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNext CHCH News\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPort Colborne crash closes stretch of Highway 3: OPP\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"637\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/OPP-5-1024x637.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\"   itemprop=\"image\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1\/1;\"\/>\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; A view of the blaze taken from Seneca Avenue, showing&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":925410,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[49,48,44],"class_list":["post-925409","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-canada","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/925409","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=925409"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/925409\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/925410"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=925409"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=925409"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=925409"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
