Fire In Saint John’s South End

Saint John fire crews are investigating a fire at a three-storey apartment building in the city’s south end.

Platoon Chief Roy Byers says they were called to Elliott Row around 5:30 a.m. Thursday.

Byers says the flames were contained to a vacant unit but there was heavy smoke throughout the building.

The Canadian Red Cross says it is providing emergency lodging and meals for six adults from five units.

No injuries have been reported and there is no word when tenants will be allowed back home.
