The victim was located by Brampton firefighters and taken to a nearby hospital in critical condition but was later pronounced dead. Mike Keane arrived at the building to help his 79-year-old mother move out of her second-floor apartment because the fire occurred above her unit.“She called me and said the smoke alarms were on,” said Keane. “And today, well, something major happened.”
When Keane arrived most of the residents were safely out on the sidewalk and front lawns across from the building.“I guess at that point they just realized the smoke was just getting a little too much. After a while we found out somebody perished from it. It’s a shame,” said Keane. He said most residents were allowed back in their apartments but his mom is elderly and suffers from lung problems so she will be staying at his house for the next little while.Share this Story:
