May 24, 2010 - 4th Alarm - 795 Queen St. West
May 24, 2010 - 5:50pm - South Command - "D" Shift
Crews arriving at this downtown row of stores and apartments found a rear deck in flames. It was attached to the upper floor of the four unit complex, the rear wall of which was insulbrick. In spite of a quick knock down, flames had already extended inside and began working their way through wall and ceiling spaces. They were chased into two apartments and up into the roof, then into another apartment at 791. Finally, in the heat and humidity, using seven lines, TFS members got the better of them. Damage is $500,000, and the cause is under investigation.
