Calgary Fire Department battled two blazes on Sunday morning as multiple homes were aflame.
Crews first responded to a two-alarm fire in the southwest at around 3:10 a.m.
When crews arrived on scene, officials said large volumes of smoke and fire were coming from a two-storey house in the 200 block of Cougarstone Gardens. Due to the size of the fire and the location of the flames in the roof, CFD said a second alarm was sounded to ensure appropriate resources were on scene to battle the blaze.“Fire crews started an aggressive attack on the source home while placing hose lines to help stop the spread of fire to exposed homes,” a news release read. “Because the fire was primarily in the roof structure, an aerial water tower was set up to control the fire and fire spread.
