Nine tenants displaced after house fire on Cuddie Crescent results in $300,000 damage

For the second time in less than a week, PG Firefighters doused a house fire on the 1200 block of Cuddie Crescent.

Just after 2:40 this morning (Wednesday), crews from three halls responded to the blaze where they found a heavily involved fourplex with fire coming from two units.

It was later extinguished by on-scene crews.

All nine tenants of the four-plex are being supported by the City’s Emergency Support Services.

The cause of the fire is undetermined and is currently under investigation.

The dollar loss is estimated at $300,000.

Last week (June 5th), PG firefighters put out another residential blaze in the same complex that resulted in $50,000 damage.

In both files, there were no reported injuries to civilians or fire personnel.
