HomeStratford NewsUPDATED: No One Hurt in Structure Fire on Frederick Street

UPDATED: No One Hurt in Structure Fire on Frederick Street

UPDATE #3:

Stratford Fire Chief John Paradis says no one was hurt in today’s fire at an auto service station on Frederick Street.

He says workers at the building tried to put the fire out with extinguishers and got out in time when that didn’t work.

Paradis is thanking Perth County EMS, Stratford Police and fire crews for their quick work in keeping everyone out of harm’s way.

The estimated damages could be in the range of $500,000 to the local garage, which Paradis says will warrant an investigation from the Fire Marshal’s office.

He says crews are still working to make sure the area is safe before wrapping up operations.
