The old Tembec/Crestbrook saw mill was on fire tonight! Being the boring small town folk that we are, we of course embarassingly, rushed the scene . . . along with all the other residents of Cranbrook. There is no word yet on what caused the fire, or how it started. It definitely smelled of burning rubber though.
P took some great pictures from the ridge behind the mill. . .
Cranbrook Downtown Fire
Two people were rescued by police as a fire burned through one of Cranbrook’s historic downtown building. The police managed to wake the two sleeping residents of building, who then had to climb to the roof of a neighbouring building to be rescued by firefighters.
No one was injured in the fire, but the two residents of the building lost their home and four businesses that resided in the building were also completely lost. To adjacent building and businesses, “The Choice” and “Cranbrook Photo” also had some damage due to the fire.
Downtown Cranbrook Fire Demolition
Hopefully the re-build is a quick process as a huge gap has been left in Cranbrook’s main street. I’m sure the business’s will be back better than ever soon!
