Two separate apartment fires | CTV News [Video]

Windsor Fire and Rescue responded to two calls at Ouellette Avenue apartment buildings Sunday morning.

Acting Chief Fire Prevention Officer John Smith told CTV News crews responded to a fire at 810 Ouellette Ave. around 10 a.m. for a fire on the 11th floor.

“Crews entered a unit on the 11th floor, found a mattress fire and quickly extinguished that mattress fire,” Smith said.

One person was displaced from the unit, and the fire did not spread, Smith said.

The cause is believed to be accidental due to “careless smoking” and cost an estimated $75,000 in damages.

Around 11:40 a.m. crews responded to a separate fire on the 16th floor of 920 Ouellette.
