Winnipeg firefighters believe a Saturday morning house fire near Regent Avenue was caused by someone improperly using incense.
At about 10:30 a.m., fire crews raced to the fire in a two-storey, single family home on the 200 block of Rougeau Avenue, the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service says.
When they arrived, they saw heavy smoke in the home and began dousing the blaze.
Crews extinguished the fire just before 11 a.m.
