Dozens Displaced After Apartment Building Fire

A fire in eastern New Brunswick has forced more than three dozen people from their homes.

Crews were called to a 32-unit building in Elsipogtog First Nation late Wednesday night.

The Canadian Red Cross says one apartment was destroyed and a dozen others were damaged.

Officials say one man was taken to the hospital with unknown injuries.

Volunteers with the Red Cross provided support to a number of the residents affected.

There is no word yet on when all of the tenants will be allowed to return home.
