UPDATE: No injuries reported as Kamloops Fire Rescue snuff out North Shore structure fire

KAMLOOPS — (UPDATE 10:00 a.m.): Kamloops Fire Rescue crews made quick work of a very visible structure fire that broke out near McDonald Park on the North Shore.

Crews were called just before 8:45 a.m. Monday (July 13) morning as a large column of black smoke was visible across much of Kamloops. Firefighters arrived to find a recreational vehicle and a shed on fire in the area of Alexander Avenue and Ross Street, but they were able to get a handle on things around 9:00 a.m.

“We weren’t sure what it would be until we got on scene,” Platoon Chief Ken Hartt told CFJC Today. “It was an 18 foot motorhome and about a 10 foot by 10 foot shed that was on fire.”
