Multiple units were called out to the massive fire that broke out around 1 p.m. According to Windsor Fire Services, everyone made it out of the building safely.

Crews battled the fire for several hours Sunday and residents around Windermere Road and Cataraqui Street were asked to close their windows and shelter in place.
