THUNDER BAY – A Valley Street home was gutted in an overnight fire on Saturday morning.
Thunder Bay Fire Rescue responded to the fire, in the 200 block of the north-side street, at approximately 3:30 a.m., arriving to find heavy smoke and flame showing from the front and side of the bungalow-style home.
Three simultaneous attack lines were set up to fight the fire and provide an entry point to search for any trapped victims. However, upon entering the home, it was confirmed there was no one inside the home and a family pet was located and rescued during the search.
Damage to the home was quite extensive and the fire remains under investigation.
Two Thunder Bay Police patrol cars remain at the scene.
