The Drumheller Fire Department responded to a call of a structure fire on Newcastle Trail on Tuesday afternoon, August 20.
The Department arrived on scene to the 900 block of Newcastle Trail at about 1:30 p.m. The fire was called in by a passerby who noted smoke coming from a roof vent on the roof of the house.
Apparatus and support came from the department’s Rosedale Hall. An ambulance was also on scene as well as a municipal enforcement officer to block traffic and ATCO disconnected service to the home.
It appears the fire started in a bathroom fan and spread to the ceiling. Firefighters attacked the fire from the roof with water and a chainsaw.
It appears there were no injuries.
