Police Officers Rescue Residents from House Fire
14-33990
Good timing and quick thinking led to Kingston Police uniform patrol officers rescuing multiple residents from a Montreal Street house fire over the weekend.
On Sunday, November 2nd at approximately 2:45 p.m. a patrol officer was on duty driving his cruiser when he noticed smoke billowing from the rear of 770 Montreal Street, located just south of Hickson Avenue. The officer parked his vehicle and was approaching the residence when he heard screams from the rear yard.
Two adult females were huddled in the corner of the backyard with a four-year old girl, surrounded on three sides by an eight foot high fence with the building now engulfed. After notifying dispatch and requesting Kingston Fire and Rescue to attend the officer propped up a picnic table against the fence and the child was passed over to him. The child was carried to a place of safety on the sidewalk and the officer returned and assisted the two women from escaping the rear yard.
A second officer attended on scene by this time when they were advised there was still someone else in the house, which was now fully engulfed. The two Constables returned to the rear yard where an adult female was perched halfway out of a second-story window. The officers were able to place a small ladder along the wall and were able to assist the woman in descending down and away from burning building just as the flames were about to reach her. During this same time they were also able to safely retrieve a dog found in the backyard and return it to its owner.
Two other officers attended and the four members in total continued to enter and clear the remaining apartments located inside the building to ensure no one else was in danger, but everyone else had already escaped. Kingston Fire and Rescue attended to extinguish the fire and were also able to retrieve a second dog and a pet snake from the residence. At least one police officer received oxygen due to smoke inhalation when clearing the house.
Fire inspectors and detectives continue to investigate the fire, which is not believed to be electrical or structural in nature. A human component is suspected, but needs to be determined if purposeful or simply accidental.
Anyone with information is please asked to contact Detective Adam McMullen at 613-549-4660 ext 6281 or via email at amcmullen@kpf.ca.
