Swift response keeps Jaffray blaze contained
Members of the Jaffray and Baynes Lake Fire Departments were on the scene of a fire in Jaffray yesterday afternoon (Feb. 25).
Approximately 10 firefighters from the Baynes and Jaffray Fire Departments responded to the scene of a structure fire just after 1 p.m.
“When we arrived, we found a large workshop completely engulfed in flames,” explains Jaffray Baynes Lake Fire Chief, Dave Boreen. “This was a really fast moving fire and our efforts focused on protecting the nearby garage and RV trailer to prevent further losses.”
The fire was contained to the workshop, which is a total loss. The cause of the blaze is under investigation.
“The crew did a great job yesterday and their efforts helped prevent this fire from having a much larger impact,” adds Boreen.
