Fire breaks out on Dartmouth apartment building balcony
An apartment building appears to have been damaged following a fire in Dartmouth, N.S., Wednesday morning.
Crews responded to a three-storey apartment building on Primrose Street around 9:40 a.m.
They found heavy fire on a second-floor balcony, which had extended to the floor above.
Crews needed an aerial truck to help get the fire under control.
Halifax Professional Fire Fighters says it is the same building where a major fire broke out in 2018. One person died as a result of that fire and a second person was sent to hospital.
