Two homes damaged in Coaldale fire
COALDALE, AB – Firefighters are asking the public to be more careful as a fun night out by the fire pit turned into much more.
Coaldale & District Emergency Services (CDES) was called to a structure fire in the Garden Grove Mobile Home Park at approximately 1:00 a.m. on Wednesday, September 11, 2024.
Director of Protective Services Clayton Rutberg says the fire pit reignited overnight after being used that evening.
The fire pit was reportedly too close to a garden shed, which led to the flames spreading to two mobile homes and a second garden shed.
