Fortunately there were no injuries following a house fire in Red Deer’s West Park neighbourhood on Monday.

RDES Deputy Chief Bart Rowland says crews received the call shortly before 11:00 a.m. and saw smoke coming from the two-story home on Wiltshire Place when they arrived.

“We had a total on scene of 19 people,” states Rowland. “They went in and did find a fire, they put it out and now investigators are looking into the cause of it. The whole home was full of smoke at the time.”

He adds there was no one inside the home at the time but is unsure of how many people live in the residence.
