Winnipeg fire crews battled a blaze at an apartment in the 400 block of Maryland Street Monday, the same building that had a fire rip through it last week.
Once crews entered the three-storey building, they were forced to leave and move to a defensive attack. One nearby home was evacuated as a precaution.
