When they say a watched pot never boils, that’s not exactly true.
A neglected pot on a stove was the reason fire crews cleared out a 7-unit apartment building at 101 Elliot Road just after 3:30 yesterday afternoon. Crews had to force their way into the apartment and quickly put out the small fire, but stayed an hour to ventilate the smoke.
Fire crews were also busy looking for the source of a propane smell at Canadian Tire West yesterday afternoon. Crews couldn’t find the source of the smell, and after everything was deemed safe the store and gas bar opened back up.
