“They initiated an aggressive attack and knocked the fire down as quickly as possible and continued to fight the fire,” said acting district chief Neal Schellenberg.
In a release, the Calgary Fire Department said the “fire damage to the fourth floor and roof along with water damage throughout the structure was significant.”
No injuries were reported among the residents who were evacuated from their homes. All residents from the impacted block of the complex had their needs assessed by the Calgary Emergency Management Agency (CEMA) at the scene.
Fire officials said residents “will be displaced from their homes for an undetermined amount of time.”
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
