‘Extensive’ damage reported at Stoney Creek seniors’ apartment building after 3-alarm fire

A three-alarm fire has caused “extensive damage” at a Stoney Creek seniors' apartment building, Hamilton Fire Department officials say.

Emergency crews were called to a third-floor unit at Stoneybrook Manor, a 60-unit affordable housing building for seniors built in the mid-1980s, on Stoney Brook Drive, located near Gray and Queenston roads, just before 7 p.m. on Wednesday.

“Our crews are working at a [three-alarm] structure fire with multiple units involved. The fire had made it through the roof. Damage is extensive. Crews will be on scene for some time,” a tweet issued by the department Wednesday evening said.

Representatives with Hamilton police and Hamilton Paramedic Services told Global News there were no immediate reports of injuries.

The police spokesperson told Global News buses were being sent to the scene to act as shelter for displaced residents.

More to come.
