Vacant Building Fire

For the second time in a little more than a month, fire broke out at an abandoned building on Dundas Street in London. After receiving multiple 911 calls, London fire crews were dispatched to 737 Dundas St. Crews attacked the fire from the outside including use of an aerial truck. No injuries are reported, and London Hydro attended the scene to assist. Back on Sept. 5, a fire at the same property led to an arson investigation. Investigators say they are treating Wednesday's fire as suspicious.

First responders honoured

Several London first responders have been honoured for their heroism on the job. The 2023 Ontario medals for bravery awards were handed out in Toronto Monday night — honouring those who risk their lives to save others. A total of 35 London firefighters were recognized for their efforts in the 2020 Teeple Terrace building collapse. Four London police officers were also honoured for their assistance during the collapse four years ago.
