Extensive Damage In Watford Apartment Fire

The Ontario Fire Marshall has been called in to investigate a four-alarm fire in Watford.

Watford Deputy Chief Jim Hart says they were called to a two-story brick apartment in the 5200 block of Nauvoo Rd., between the Watford Legion and a Chinese food restaurant, around 9:15pm.

He says heavy smoke could be seen pouring from the upper unit upon arrival.
