Fire consumes vacant home on Manitoba Avenue

Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service crews responded to a fire in the 300 block of Manitoba Avenue Monday morning. Platoon One Fire Chief, Brent Cheater, said this isn’t the first time crews have responded to a fire at this address. Due to structural safety concerns crews didn’t enter the building to fight the blaze and instead extinguished the fire from the outside. No injuries were reported and the structure is expected to be a total loss.
