Police Investigate Suspicious Fire At Toronto

 BY IAN CROUCH

Police have set up a crime scene as investigations continue into a suspicious fire at Toronto.

More than 30 firefighters and Hazmat crews were called to Victory Parade just after midday on Sunday to find an abandoned two storey building engulfed in flames.

Around 20 people were evacuated  from a neighbouring apartment building and an exclusion zone was set up due to asbestos fears.

Crews took about 3 hours to douses the flames, with council crews called in to clean up debris from the roadway.
