A woman is in hospital following a two-alarm residential fire in Scarborough.
Toronto fire crews were called to a two-alarm fire at a home on Coltbridge Court in the Kingston Road and Markham Road area just before 7 a.m. on Tuesday.
The Toronto Police Service initially said two adults were pulled from the home, which was engulfed in flames when first responders arrived. However, Toronto Fire Services (TFS) later said only one person was removed from the residence.
Toronto Paramedic Services tell CityNews one adult female was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries.
TFS district chief Steven Buckingham said the fire is believed to have started in the garage and made its way into the home, including the attic.
The fire is still active, and crews are working to contain it. Photos from the scene show the home with significant damage.
It’s unclear how the fire started, and it’s not yet known if the home had working fire alarms.
Gas and hydro have been shut off at the residence.
