The Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service (WFPS) says an explosion that happened at a Redwood Avenue home Wednesday night may have been caused by a gas leak.
Fire crews were called to the one-and-a-half-storey home around 11:25 p.m., where they found a “well-involved” fire underway and signs that an explosion had happened.
The blaze was under control by just after midnight.
