Two significant fires make for extra busy weekend at Red Deer Emergency Services
The cause of a fire in Red Deer’s Edgar Industrial on Sunday night remains under investigation.
Red Deer Emergency Services (RDES), responded just after 8:30 to the 7600-block of Edgar to find heavy smoke and fire coming from the offices of Lockhart Oilfield Services.
“Crews worked really quickly to knock down the main body of fire,” says Evan Stewart, assistant deputy chief, RDES. “The fire appears to have started on the first floor and then extended into the second floor.”
Stewart says it significantly damaged two suites.
