Surrey firefighters have a busy weekend

Over the weekend (December 10- 11) the surrey fire department battled 4 fires. The chief of the department said that they were alerted of the one of the fires at 3:30 am on sunday morning. They believe that the fire started at the back of the house and quickly engulfed the home and spread to the house next door (on the east side.) Non of the occupants of the houses were harmed in the fires and all the fire men came out safe, however 10 people have been displaced due to extensive damage to their homes, an example being the roof of the first home collapsing. Fortunately for the other homes no structural damage was done only some of the inside of the homes.

My hopes are with you, and I am terribly sorry to hear that your homes were destroyed (to all the people who lost things in these fires.) No one was injured and that is amazing to hear but come on 4 different fires in surrey this weekend that has to be a coincidence, and if not then some people need to learn how to turn off a stove or to put out a cigarette. I understand that the fire department is there for the safety of everyone but if they are putting their lives on the line for people then don't purposely cause more fires because on another occasion not everyone will make it out without a scratch and if this fire was started intensionally then the person responsible should be happy that no one was harmed. Now most likely this fires were started by mistake or because someone was careless but no worries no one was harmed but to those 10 people without a home right now my thoughts and prayers are with you right now and for everything you lost i'm sorry.
