On January 17, 2024 at 5:10 a.m., the Prince Albert Fire Department was dispatched to a restaurant in the 100 block of 11 Street West for a report of a fire in the kitchen. Crews arrived and initially made entry into the structure, and discovered heavy fire in the kitchen area, and attempted to extinguish. It was noted that fire had extended into the attic space prior to arrival, and the fire quickly spread onto the roof. Firefighters retreated from the structure and began a defensive attack from the exterior. The fire while under control and not endangering neighboring properties, continues to burn. Crews will be remaining on scene for the majority of the day. There were no injuries reported. The cause of the fire cannot be determined until the fire is extinguished.
Please avoid the area of 11th Street and 1st Avenue West, as fire crews and Police are working in the area, and water runoff has made roads extremely icy at this time.
