A fire early Wednesday evening in the city’s SoHo neighbourhood is being treated as suspicious by London police.
Emergency crews responded to the scene at 231 Waterloo St. just south of Horton Street around 6:30 p.m. for a working structure fire.
Few details have been released, however in a tweet Wednesday night, London fire officials said they were able to get the fire under control with no injuries reported.
Damage to the building was extensive. A damage estimate was not immediately available. It’s unclear if the building was occupied at the time. A large green dumpster could be seen in the home’s driveway.
