The Office of the Ontario Fire Marshal has been called in after heavy smoke from a fire in an underground garage in Hillcrest Village spread to two adjoining buildings and caused more than $500,000 in damage.
At least one parked car in a garage at the rear of a building St. Clair Avenue West near Bathurst Street caught fire shortly after 1 a.m. The fire was then upgraded to a two-alarm blaze at around 1:20 a.m. before being knocked down a short time later.
According to Captain. David Eckerman, the main issue concerning the fire was the amount of smoke that migrated to two adjoining buildings.
