A few people were forced out into the cold Friday morning following a fire at a southwest condo.
Calgary Fire Department Spokesperson Carole Henke says it happened just before 7 a.m. in the Killarney community along 35 St. SW and 19th Ave.
“Three people were evacuated and apparently smoke alarms in the building alerted them to the fact there was something going on, so that’s the good news piece,” said Henke.
The fire was quickly extinguished while those evacuated waited in a nearby restaurant.
Henke says the extent of damage to the four-unit building is not yet established.
Nobody was hurt, and the cause is under investigation.
