A house fire in Fredericton early Sunday has sent one woman to hospital and displaced 11 others.
Firefighters were called to 379 Charlotte St. at about 5:30 a.m.
Mike Mizner, acting platoon captain with the Fredericton Fire Department, said a fire was raging at the back of the building.
"You could see flames coming through the doors and windows," he told CBC News. "There was smoke coming from pretty much all parts of the house."
Mizner said firefighters pulled a woman out of the building. He didn't know her condition, but said she was taken to Halifax.
Twelve people lived in the two-storey building, with 10 at the front and two at the back.
Mizner said two people are staying at a hotel while the Canadian Red Cross is taking care of the rest.
Residents were allowed back in Sunday morning to retrieve some possessions, the CBC's Jacques Poitras reported.
Mizner said it appears the fire began at the back of the building.
Poitras said resident Danielle Roy complained of a smell of gas in the last month.
The investigation into the cause of the fire continues.
Poitras said the owners of the building were watching the cleanup but declined to comment.
Fire officials continue their investigation of the blaze Sunday. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)Anda sedang membaca artikel tentang
