Winkler Fire Department responds to a structure fire

After being dispatched to a landfill fire in Altona for mutual aid just one day prior, the Winkler Fire Department responded to a small structure fire on Thursday morning on 7th Street. This adds yet another call to what’s already been a busy few weeks for the department.  

Crews were dispatched at 11:47 a.m. on May 8 after reports of an exterior fire at a home. Firefighters were able to contain the flames to the outside of the building, and no injuries were reported. 

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
