The Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service has dealt with four different fires in the space of 12 hours.
The most recent of the four was at the western edge of downtown Winnipeg, in a vacant home on Spence Street south of Cumberland Avenue, on Tuesday morning.
Firefighters went to the home shortly after 6:30 a.m. and tried to fight the fire from inside the house, but had to retreat because of the building's deteriorating condition, a news release from the City of Winnipeg said.
They used an aerial ladder to spray the building with water, protecting neighbouring homes from damage.
An emergency demolition of the house was done to allow firefighters to gain access to the remaining small fires.
The cause of the fire isn't known.
