A wood-burning stove may be to blame for a fire that broke out inside a North York townhouse unit early Monday morning, Toronto police say.

No injuries were reported in the blaze on Gosford Boulevard, near Steeles Avenue West and Jane Street.

Emergency personnel were called to the scene shortly after 3:30 a.m., as smoke billowed out of the home.

The complex was evacuated as firefighters battled the blaze.
