The tranquility of the FĂȘte nationale holiday in Laval was disrupted during the early morning hours on June 24 when LFD firefighters were summoned to a business on Guillet St. in the Laval industrial park to extinguish a fire that broke out in what appeared to be a storage building.
According to the Association des Pompiers Laval (the Laval firefighters’ labour union), the incident was called in at 1:45 am as a code 10-09, meaning “help fully involved.”
Flames were seen shooting out of the 1 1/2-story industrial building, with the potential to spread to nearby structures.
The blaze was later declared to be under control.
