A number of homes in Toronto’s Eglinton West area are being evacuated as crews work to stamp out a raging six-alarm fire that continues to tear through a school in the city’s west end.
“Our principal focus now in collaboration with the police is making sure that we’re implementing the necessary evacuations out of an abundance of caution to keep people safe,” Toronto Fire Chief Matthew Pegg said.
Homes on the south side of Eglinton Avenue are being evacuated between Trethewey Drive and Bicknell Avenue due to heavy smoke from the fire.
