Fire crews extinguished a two-alarm blaze at a Toronto home Saturday morning.
Toronto Fire Capt. Dan Vieira said emergency crews were called just before 7 a.m. to 11 Rowntree Ave., which is in the area of Old Weston Road and St. Clair Avenue West.
Vieira said there was a heavy fire and smoke in the rear of the home.
The blaze also extended to a neighbouring house, Vieira added.
The fire has since been knocked down though crews remained at the scene to monitor the situation.
