The Calgary Fire Department had a busy Thursday morning after responding to two house fires within about half an hour of each other.
Two adults were evacuated from the bungalow on the property, which suffered minor exterior damage from the fire. The garage was destroyed, CFD said.Fire crews were then called to the 1000 block of Northmount Drive N.W. around 35 minutes later for reports of a fire in the basement suite in a home. The residents on the main floor suite were alerted to the fire by smoke alarms.When fire crews arrived, they found light smoke coming from the basement of the bungalow.
Firefighters say cooking left unattended is the most common cause of accidental indoor fires and the CFD is reminding everyone to have working smoke alarms.
