Structure fire - 654 Gladmer Park

At approximately 2:38 this afternoon, the Saskatoon Fire Department received multiple 911 calls reporting smoke exiting a multi-unit townhouse complex. The source unit was identified as 654 Gladmer Park.

Immediately dispatched were three Fire Engines, one Aerial Ladder Truck, one Heavy Rescue Unit, one Fire Investigation Unit, and one Battalion Chief. 

Fire crews observed heavy smoke inside the townhouse and visibly exiting through upper-level windows. Firefighters shut down the gas line to the source unit and utility technicians were requested to disconnect remaining utilities. An interior attack was initiated and a fire was quickly located and extinguished in the kitchen. Fire crews performed searches of the source unit, as well as adjoining units to ensure all occupants and pets were safely evacuated. Fire crews tested carbon monoxide (CO) levels around the complex, and ventilation fans were used to clear the source unit and its adjoining units of any remaining smoke or carbon monoxide.

There were no injuries reported as a result of this fire. Fire Investigators are working to determine a cause and damage estimate.
