Police probe Aylmer garage fire

By Jason White

A suspicious early-morning garage fire in a residential neighbourhood is being investigated by Gatineau police.

The fire began in a garage behind a bungalow on rue Sancerre, near boulevard Lucerne and chemin Fraser, shortly after 3 a.m., Friday.

Gatineau's fire department says the flames spread from the garage to a neighbouring shed, and that two homes were evacuated as a precaution.

The fire was extinguished and both homes' residents were allowed back inside.

Damage is estimated around $30,000.

Police will investigate the cause of the fire.
