Garage Fire - 100 block of Avenue K South

At approximately 9:39 p.m. on May 21, 2020, the Saskatoon Fire Department received many 911 calls reporting a garage on fire in the 100 block of Avenue K South. Three fire engines, one rescue unit, one aerial ladder truck, one fire investigation unit, and one battalion chief were dispatched for response.

Firefighters arrived on scene in less than four minutes to find a boarded-up residential garage fully involved in fire. A connection to a nearby hydrant was made and fire crews immediately began flowing water and foam to extinguish the fire; it was brought under control within minutes of the first fire engine arriving on scene. Upon searching the garage, firefighters confirmed there to be no occupants or further extension of the fire. There were no injuries reported as a result of this incident.

A fire investigator is on scene working to identify a cause and assess the damage.
