The city says one person is in critical condition after a house fire in Winnipeg Tuesday evening.
The fire happened at a home on Lorette Avenue near Wentworth Street just after 5 p.m.
Crews say heavy smoke was coming from the house when they arrived and they knocked down some of the flames from the outside before entering.
A dog was also found dead inside the home.
Police say traffic is restricted while they investigate and the public is asked to avoid the area.
Crews also responded to a fire at a two-and-a-half storey house in the 600 block of William Avenue Tuesday night. Nobody was hurt.
