Apartment Blaze Displaces Residents

An apartment building being evacuated after a fire broke out in one of the units.

The Saint John Fire Department says there was heavy smoke pouring out of a third floor apartment on Davenport Avenue when they arrived. They found a fire in the back of the home, possibly in a bedroom. 


While fire crews kept the fire from spreading, the room is heavily damaged by fire and the rest of the apartment has major smoke and water damage. The building itself has slight smoke and water damage.

The people living in the apartment where the fire started are displaced for a while until the apartment is fixed. No word on the cause of the blaze.
