The blaze was knocked down quickly and Captain Darryl Cooper says the investigation will continue into this afternoon.

“That will be up to our Fire Prevention Office, Fire Investigation Unit to come down and see where it started, but it looks like it started in the shed,” explained Cooper. 

The apartment complex was completely evacuated by the time firefighters arrived, but no units were damaged.
