The Saskatoon Fire Department received several calls Sunday afternoon about a tarped structure fire that had extended to a garage in the 100 block of Avenue N North. The call came in at 3:29 and the fire was under control by 3:54.

A Fire Investigator has determined the fire started inside a tarped structure on a vacant lot from a briquette barbecue inside. The fire then extended to a neighbour’s detached garage, which was fully engulfed in flame when fire crews arrived. It has been deemed an accident and the estimated damage is $15,000.
