Car fire

Aside from a few medical calls, the Fort Frances Fire Department had a relatively quiet Victoria Day weekend, responding to just one fire.
At 1:10 a.m. yesterday, firefighters were called to a vehicle fire on the 100 block of Fourth Street West, Fire Chief Gerry Armstrong reported this morning.
When they arrived, the 2001 mini-van was “completely engulfed in fire,” he noted, adding the vehicle was a “write-off.”
The exact cause of the fire was not determined, but it was deemed “accidental” and originated inside the vehicle, not from the vehicle’s engine.
